  • 1 small red onion, diced
  • 3 garlic cloves, crushed
  • 1 tsp mixed herbs

  • 400g tin of chopped tomatoes
  • 1/2 tsp sugar
  • Splash of Tabasco (optional)
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • (This makes a good standard pasta sauce base and is freezable, so feel free to double the ingredients if you want more to save)

  • 1/2 courgette, sliced into 2mm rounds.
  • Parmesan
  • On the side (pick one, all, or none!)
