- BRAVAS SAUCE
- Make the Tomato Sauce
- Heat the oil in a frying pan over a low to medium heat;
- Add the onions, red pepper and garlic and sauté for some 10 minutes or so, stirring occasionally, until onions soft and light gold in colour;
- Add the tomatoes, basil, salt and sugar, bring to the boil, lower the heat and simmer gently, stirring occasionally, for some 30 to 45 minutes or so or until the sauce has thickened to a thick rich texture;
- Leave to cool slightly then “Blitz” to a smooth consistency.
- THEN
- Pour the Tomato sauce into a small serving bowl, add the mustard and combine well together;
- Add the Tabasco and paprika, and mix everything together well;
