Tomato sauce for pasta

CREAMY MASCARPONE

Stir 2 tbsp mascarpone into the sauce at the

end of the cooking time. Delicious poured

over fresh tortellini, topped with a few more

spoonfuls of cheese, then baked until bubbling

at the edges.

SPICY ARRABIATA

Use 2 garlic cloves and add a good pinch each

of chilli flakes and dried oregano. Stir in 1 tsp

balsamic vinegar to serve.

SWEET SPICED SAUCE

Omit the basil and add 2 tsp honey and ½ tsp

each ground cinnamon and coriander instead

of the sugar. Try it with lamb meatballs and

couscous, or served with chicken.
