Tomato and mushroom sauce

  1. Heat some olive oil very hot in a saucepan and fry the mushrooms in it. The oil should be very hot, then the mushrooms get nice roasted aromas – otherwise they start to simmer and the consistency is not very tingly.
  2. Then add the onion and garlic as well as the paprika powder and sauté until translucent while turning. Then add tomatoes and mash a little with a wooden spoon. Now add the oregano and sugar and season with salt and pepper. Then simmer for about 2 hours at a low temperature, if necessary top up with vegetable stock from time to time.
