TOMATO BASIL GARLIC BUTTER SAUCE

Steps:

• Give the cherry tomatoes, fresh basil leaves and lemon a quick wash, then dry them before prepping them.
• Grab a cutting board and a sharp knife and prep the cherry tomatoes by slicing them in half and set aside. Then finely mince the garlic - you can do this with a chef's knife or use a coarse microplane grater and set aside. Next, use a microplane or fine grater and zest the lemon - only zest the yellow part of the lemon peel, not the inner white pith and set aside. Then cut the lemon in half and squeeze a few teaspoons of juice into a small bowl and set aside.
• In a medium saucepan over low heat, add the butter and allow to melt - this should take about 1 minute. Once the butter has melted, increase the heat to medium and add the tomatoes, garlic, lemon zest and lemon juice. Cook for about 5 minutes, just until the cherry tomatoes start to break down. Then add the whole basil leaves to the sauce and give it several stirs until the basil leaves have slightly wilted into the sauce.
• At this point you can remove the sauce from the heat and season with sea salt and optional freshly ground pepper. Stir and serve immediately.

TOMATO BASIL SAUCE

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil or butter in a medium sized sauce pan.
• Add the diced onion and crushed garlic, cook until the onion is soft and translucent, about 5-7 minutes.
• Add the tomatoes and bring to the sauce to a boil.
• Reduce the heat and add the basil - some can be chopped, but you can also add the stalks (they add flavor) and remove the stalks when the sauce is done. Add the sugar if using, you can also add the salt and pepper.
• Cook the sauce over low heat for at least 30 minutes. Stir the sauce frequently with a wooden spoon and use the spoon to press and help breakdown the chunky tomato pieces.
• For a smoother sauce you can use a hand held blender to break down the tomatoes if using whole or diced tomatoes. If you let the sauce cook for longer the tomatoes will naturally break down, or if you prefer a more chunky consistency you can skip the blender step.
• Once the consistency suits your preference, the sauce is done and ready to use. For an extra taste of freshness you can add some freshly chopped basil when serving the sauce.
