Serves 2.5

3 tomatoes, diced

400ml passata

1 clove garlic, crushed

Glug olive oil

1 teaspoon dried oregano

Black pepper

Get your pasta in a pan of boiling water on the hob.  Fy the garlic briefly in olive oil. Add the tomatoes, passata, herbs and seasoning and cook for around 10 minutes, mashing the diced tomatoes into the sauce as you go. Serve with freshly grated parmesan. This is a good, easy dinner for lazy busy days.

We have this cold as ‘ketchup’ – or will do until the day Bert tastes Heinz ketchup.
