Instructions

Working time approx. 20 minutes; Cooking/baking time approx. 30 minutes; Total time approx. 50 minutes

goes well with pasta or rice

Dice the vegetables into very small pieces. Briefly sauté the onions and leeks in olive oil, then add the remaining vegetables and a crushed clove of garlic and fry. Dissolve the vegetable stock in water and add to the sauce. Season with salt, pepper, and chili and simmer for about 20 minutes. Finally, add the passata and season again if necessary. If the sauce is a bit too thin, thicken it with a sauce thickener. Perfect with pasta, rice, or fish. Tip: If you like, you can add a teaspoon of meat juices to taste, but this will no longer make the dish vegetarian.
