Birajte one najlepše, najzdravije plodove, ukus umaka će biti predobar. Ja sam i ove godine zasadila majkine takozvane 'avlijske paradajze'. Nezovu se oni tako, nije to neka nova sorta, tako smo ih nazvale majka i ja jedne jeseni, pred kraj Oktobra, o Sv. Luki kad sam dolazila majki u posetu. Otvaraš kapiju pa ulaziš u avliju i prvo na čemu ti pogled zastane su oni divni, visoki, rumeni porasli skoro do krova kuće. Divno puzajući uz okno kuhinjskog prozora, taman da ih ubereš s njega. Mora da sam i to zabilježila fotografijama samo kad ih nadjem ;) ja sam moje već obrala jer nisu ovde Oktobarski dani osunčani kao što su bili u majkinoj avliji.

...a ove zelene sam iskoristila u ljutici...

Priprema

1. Staviti paradajz u posudu, preliti kipućom vodom i ostavite oko 2 minute ili dok se korice ne počnu cjepati. Izliti vodu, paradajz oguliti i naseckati.

2. Zagrijati ulje u većoj šerpi i lagano pržiti luk oko 5 minuta ili dok ne omekša, ali ne da porumeni. Dodati beli luk i pržite još oko 1 minutu.

3. Dodati paradajz i kuvati uz često mešanje oko 25 minuta ili dok se umak ne zgusne. Oprezno ga samljeti štapnim mikserom.

4. Umešati origano, sveže začinsko bilje i začiniti solju i biberom. Ako je umak oštar, dodati šećer.

5. Umak je spreman za koristiti a možete ga u tegli čuvati u frižideru nekoliko dana. Ja sam ga iskoristila u ova dva apsolutno omiljena recepta; Lazanje i Ćufte. A sjajno ga je pomešati sa kuvanom tjesteninom i gore posuti sa rendanim trapistom i mrvicom začinskog bilja.

Fresh Tomato Sauce

---

This recipe makes only half a liter of aromatic, beautifully orange and smooth tomato sauce. Use it as a base for several recipes, it is also great to mix with freshly cooked pasta.

Here are some ideas of what to make

Lasagna

Meatballs in Tomato Sauce

Ingredients

650 g very ripe, full-flavored tomatoes

50 ml olive oil

2 onion, finely chopped

2 garlic cloves, crushed

1 teaspoon chopped oregano

sprinkle of caster sugar

salt & pepper

1 tablespoon mix of fresh parsley, thyme, basil, chopped

Method

1. Put the tomatoes in a heatproof bowl, cover with boiling water and leave for about 2 minutes or until the skins start to split. Pour away the water. Skin and roughly chop the tomatoes.

2. Heat the oil in a large, heavy-based saucepan and gently fry the onion for 5 minutes or until is softened but not browned. Add the garlic and fry for a further 1 minute.

3. Add the tomatoes and cook, stirring frequently, for 20-25 minutes or until the sauce is thickened and pulpy. It is a good idea to blend the sauce in order to have a smooth texture.

4. Stir in the oregano, fresh herbs and season to taste with salt and pepper. If the sauce is very sharp add a sprinkling of caster sugar.

5. Keep the homemade tomato sauce in a closed jar in the fridge or why don't you try it in this great recipe or this one and let me know what you think.

ENJOY!
