PREPARATION:

Roasted Tomato Sauce (this step must be done before starting pre-preparation):

2. Remove the white part from the tomatoes and arrange them on the greased baking tray in a single layer (do not stack them).
3. Peel and cut the red onion. Crush the garlic. Wash the basil leaves well.
4. Wash, peel and cut the red beetroot into medium cubes (optional).
5. Distribute the onion, garlic cloves and basil among the tomatoes. Add the beetroot cubes (optional).
6. Drizzle with olive oil, season with salt and pepper
7. Bake in a preheated oven at 220°C for 25 minutes, or until the tomatoes are wilted and the beetroot is well cooked, if using.
8. Continue pre-preparation.

Roasted Tomato Sauce:

1. Remove the pan from the oven and wet it with a little filtered water, rubbing with a spatula to consume any residue left on the pan.
2. Puree the tomatoes and other ingredients, preferably through a sieve (if you prefer, blend them in the blender with the pulse function – do not blend too much otherwise the sauce will not turn orange).
3. If the sauce is too thick, add a little more filtered water.
4. Place the roasted tomato sauce in a pan and heat until it starts to boil.

FINALIZATION AND ASSEMBLY:

1. When ready to serve, if you are preparing pasta, add the pasta to the pan and mix well.
2. Decorate the main course with the roasted tomato sauce with basil leaves.
