Sausage with Tomato Sauce


Typical winter sauce for winter meals... and a perfect companion for Polenta. You will find the recipe of polenta HERE
If you have a nice loaf of fresh bread, be sure you will finish it all with this wonderful dish, dipping the bread slices into the thick tomato sauce...
 
INGREDIENTS:
Servings: 3

6 sausages
1/2 onion
1 carrot
1 celery stalk
600 ml tomato purèe
salt 
sugar 
EVO oil




1. Chop the vegetables and cook them in a frying pan with some olive oil.
 



2. Cut the skin of the sausages and peel it out.
3. Add the sausages to the vegetables and cook them together for a couple of minutes.

4. Add tomato purèe to the pan with the sausages. Add about a third of a glass of water to the sauce. It will let it cook for longer and the sauce will reach it's full taste.
5. Add a pinch of sugar to the sauce.
Note: In order to balance the acidity of tomato you need to add some sugar to the sauce. Every brand of tomato purèe will need different amount of sugar.
6. Add some salt to the sauce.
7. Keep cooking at a low heat for about 20 minutes. 
If the sauce gets too dry add a splash of water.
