  • Turn off the heat and blend to a smooth sauce (which will coat the back of a spoon*). Strain to remove any seeds (optional), then set aside to cool before serving.

Notes

Storing

Fridge - store in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
Freezer - Pour the sauce into an ice cube tray to freeze, then pop them into a labelled container to keep in the freezer. Defrost as many cubes as required in a covered container in the fridge.
*Dip a spoon in the sauce and run a finger down it. If it leaves a mark, that is the perfect consistency.
