Ingredients for 4 servings:

  • 500 g tomatoes, pureed
  • 200 g cream
  • 50 ml white wine
  • 50 ml vegetable broth, strong
  • 20 g butter
  • 1 clove(s) garlic
  • 1 onion(s)
  • 1 carrot(s)
  • 1 stalk(s) Celery
  • 1 pinch(s) of sugar
  • 1 piece(s) Parmesan rind
  • salt and pepper

Instructions

Working time approx. 40 minutes; Cooking/baking time approx. 2 hours; Total time approx. 2 hours 40 minutes

According to a recipe from my family

Peel the onion, scrape the carrot and celery with a vegetable peeler. Trim and discard the ends of the carrot and the wider end of the celery. Chop everything together with the garlic very finely. Heat a pan, melt the butter and sauté the chopped vegetables. Add the wine and let it almost completely evaporate. Add the stock and reduce it considerably. During this time, stir occasionally with a wooden spoon. Scrape the surface of the Parmesan rind with a knife, add the tomatoes, cream, Parmesan rind and sugar and stir thoroughly. Simmer the sauce over very low heat for 1 hour with the lid on and 1 hour uncovered. While the sauce is simmering, stir several times with a wooden spoon to prevent the Parmesan from burning on the bottom.
