Rustic roasted capsicum and tomato sauce with visible charred texture
TooGut pickFlexible, practical, genuinely delicious.

Roasting beats simmering watery vegetables for an hour. Keep a few charred edges in the blend so the sauce tastes cooked, not manufactured.

One step at a time

Let’s cook.

Tick each step as you go. Built-in timers keep the important moments close.

Roast hard

Heat the oven to 230°C. Toss capsicum, tomatoes, onion and garlic with oil. Roast for 30 to 35 minutes until collapsed and charred at rough edges.

Blend with character

Blend with vinegar and paprika, leaving a little natural texture rather than polishing it completely smooth.

Correct the balance

Simmer for 5 minutes. Add salt and another splash of vinegar if the tomatoes taste flat.

Portion it

Use immediately or freeze in 250 ml containers for pizza, pasta, meatballs and shakshuka.
