Never heard of putting cashews into a marinara sauce.
Why?
Why?
Was there a reference to vegetarian? Couldn't find it. The thread title just says no meat....so thought anchovies would be allowed.Oh sorry, I missed the reference to it having to be vegetarian.
This is what I do.
Tomato Sauce
Ingredients-:
3 tablespoons olive oil
6 garlic cloves
1 ½ teaspoons red pepper flakes (optional)
1 ¼ cup chopped onion
3 (28 ounce) cans Italian Peeled Tomatoes, drained, chopped, reserve the juices.
(I use two quarts home canned tomatoes)
1 small can tomato paste
1/2 cup red wine
1 teaspoon sugar (optional)
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon pepper.
8 tablespoons chopped fresh Basil or 3 teaspoons dry
3 teaspoons of dry parsley
Two diced carrots (optional but then simmer till done)
Directions-:
Pour the olive oil in a stock pot, add the olive oil, onion, red pepper flakes, and garlic, cook over medium heat for 15 minutes stirring often until the onions are starting to brown.
Add the chopped tomatoes, paste, wine, salt, pepper, sugar (use sugar only if the tomatoes are tart.), basil, and oregano cook stirring well for 5 more minutes.
Add the reserve juices, bring to a boil and simmer for 30- 35 minutes stirring occasionally.
