Prepare a delicious roasted tomato sauce with a touch of basil and almond milk, perfect for pairing with your favorite dishes.
Ingredients
- 500g tomatoes, washed, peeled, and halved
- 1 ½ cups almond milk
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tbsp yuca starch (tapioca starch)
- 2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
- 1 tsp sea salt + more as needed
- Handful of fresh basil
- Pepper to taste
Preparation
- Here’s the full translation of your instructions:
- Place the tomatoes in an oven-safe dish along with the olive oil, chopped garlic, basil, salt, and pepper.
- Stir all the ingredients so they're evenly distributed over the tomatoes.
- Bake at a medium-low temperature for 30 to 40 minutes, or until the tomatoes are golden, without letting them burn.
- The time may vary depending on the oven, so keep an eye on them to avoid burning.
- There’s no need to cover the dish while baking.
- Let the tomatoes cool down, then blend or process them with the almond milk (reserve 2 tablespoons of almond milk for a later step) for about 2 minutes, or until well combined.
- Transfer the mixture to a saucepan and place it on the stove over medium-low heat. If the heat is too low, it will take too long to cook, so stir constantly to prevent sticking.
- In a separate bowl, mix the tablespoon of yuca starch with the 2 tablespoons of almond milk you set aside earlier — this will form a thick paste.
- Once the tomato mixture begins to boil, add the paste and continue stirring to thicken it evenly.
- The sauce will thicken quickly — once it reaches your desired consistency, turn off the heat and it’s ready.
- It won’t be an extremely thick sauce; if you want it thicker, just add a bit more yuca starch.
- It’s ideal for pairing with meatballs, drizzling over zucchini noodles, or even as a topping for grilled chicken to give it a unique twist.
- Personally, I find the flavor of almond milk milder than that of dairy milk, which blends beautifully in this sauce.
