Ingredients:
  • 1 Tbs olive oil
  • 2 garlic cloves minced
  • 1 cup chopped onion
  • ¼ cup apple cider vinegar (about 4g of sugar per 100g)
  • ¼ cup red wine vinegar (Nil sugar)
  • ¼ cup honey or Stevia alternative (85g of sugar per 100gm is high, but it's at least natural. Use Stevia sweetening if desired)
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 28 ounce can tomato puree (canned tomatoes have about 2.5g sugar per 100g)
  • half a 12 ounce can tomato paste (tomato paste has about 11g sugar per 100g, so we aren't using much)
  • ½ tsp ground cloves
  • ½ tsp oregano
Directions:
1. Heat the oil and saute garlic for a few minutes.
2. Add the onion and cook for 3 minutes until softened.
3. Mix in the vinegars, salt and honey.
4. Add tomato paste and puree, bringing to the boil.
5. Now mix in the oregano and the cloves.
6. Reduce the sauce so it thickens, for about 15 minutes.
7. Blend until smooth.
*Place into air tight jars in the fridge, or freeze some in plastic containers.
