Jamie Oliver Tomato Sauce

If you have followed me for a while you will know that at 18 I couldn’t cook and learnt to cook from my chef husband and binge watching Jamie Oliver and The Naked Chef. I would watch hours and hours of Jamie Oliver and loved the simplicity of his recipes.

One recipe that caught my attention in the early days was Jamie Oliver’s tomato sauce. Up until this point I don’t think I had ever considered making my own tomato sauce and would just grab a jar of tomato sauce from Tesco’s.

Before you knew it, I was making a homemade tomato sauce all the time. I would use whatever spare vegetables I had in and load them up to make a delicious creamy tomato sauce.

Soup Maker Tomato Sauce

But even though I loved to make my own Jamie Oliver tomato sauce the problem was the effort. I would have lots of washing up to do, hated the taste of boiled vegetables and even when I upgraded to a steamer it just didn’t seen as enjoyable as it once was.

Then I saw a soup maker advertised in a magazine and before you knew it, I had bought a soup maker just to make a homemade tomato sauce.

It was amazing. I could do the whole tomato sauce in the soup maker, then package into containers and freeze for whenever I needed it.

What Else Can You Make In A Soup Maker?

That is the wonderful thing. The soup maker isn’t just there to make you some soup. You can also use the soup maker for creamy tomato sauce, soup maker hummus and even for a batch of homemade chicken liver pate.

I also believe you can use a soup maker for jam, yoghurts and loads of other things, but I haven’t tried that yet.

Slimming World Tomato Sauce

I should also mention that I originally started making this creamy tomato sauce for Slimming World. I wanted a veggie loaded tomato sauce that I could use for everything.

In a similar way that we have a speed soup for slimming world this was going to be our speed sauce.

If you follow Slimming World or another low calorie diet, or maybe you are on the plant based diet, then this tomato sauce is ideal.

Basic Tomato Sauce

I also call it my basic tomato sauce because its my tomato sauce for everything.

  • Best Tomato Pasta Sauce – You can make this and then load it into your slow cooker with wholegrain pasta and you have a yummy tomato sauce pasta.
  • Best Tomato Sauce For Pizza – You can also spread it over your pizza dough bases and have it for yummy homemade pizzas.
  • Fish In Tomato Sauce – If you love your fish in tomato sauce then you can do that too.
  • Spaghetti Tomato Sauce – When I made our Ninja Foodi Spaghetti I used the same tomato sauce I am showing you how to make today.

Though best of all, it is a quick tomato pasta sauce. You can dump the ingredients into the soup maker and then have tomato sauce ready to use.

Or what I love to do is make a batch of it and dump spare tomato sauce in the freezer for another day.

Just like the supply I have just made here:

You can also mix and match your tomato sauce ingredients. Such as making a cherry tomato pasta sauce or making a tomato and red pepper sauce.

If you are wondering how do you make Jamie Oliver Tomato Sauce then this is how it is done:

  1. Dump ingredients into the soup maker.
  2. Cook.
  3. Blend and serve.

This is just how ridiculously simple it is to make a homemade tomato sauce in the soup maker, and you will wonder why you ever buy the cans.

Even better, it is fantastic for clearing out your fridge of all the leftovers and avoiding food waste.

How To Thicken Tomato Sauce?

It is easy to thicken tomato sauce. What I usually do is add in extra carrots and then blend. The carrots make your tomato sauce incredibly creamy and are a great alternative to a higher carb thickener.

Note that on our ingredients list we have carrots and that is because we want to use carrots to make the tomato sauce thick and don’t want it to come out watery.

How I Double My Soup Maker Tomato Sauce?

Here is a trick that works with the Ninja Foodi Soup Machine (its this one if you want to upgrade) and that is that the Ninja soup maker blends as it goes.

This means that after 15 minutes of cooking your ingredients have decreased to the following and you no longer have a super full soup machine:

Then what I do is reload it up with fresh tomatoes:

And then let it cook for the rest of its cook time.

Plus, if I didn’t do this, I would end up with just enough tomato sauce for one meal, instead of freezer supplies.

Notes

Liquid. The reason the courgettes go in first is because they are watery and produce their own stock. And by doing this you don’t need to add water and if you added water your sauce will need to be thickened.

Courgette. If you are wondering what courgette is, then note that courgette is called zucchini in the US.

FAQs

What is the secret to good tomato sauce? ›

Starting with good quality tomatoes and crushing them by hand offers great flavor and texture later on. The combination of butter and oil releases fat-soluble aromatics and gives the sauce a creamy texture. Slowly cooking the sauce in the oven creates rich caramelization without burning.

How do you thicken creamy tomato sauce? ›

Use Flour and Water

Combine 2 tablespoons flour with every 1/4 cup cold water and whisk until smooth. Add the mixture to your sauce over medium heat, and continue to stir and cook until you've reached your desired consistency.

Can you use condensed tomato soup in place of tomato sauce? ›

Although it is likely to change the flavor profile more than other substitutes, tomato soup can work as a tomato sauce substitute. A can of tomato soup can replace 1 cup of tomato sauce. However, because the soup has more liquid than tomato sauce, you should reduce another liquid ingredient by 1/4 cup if possible.

How to make tomato sauce more flavorful? ›

To double down on tomato flavor in your sauce, heat up a spoonful or two of tomato paste in a couple tablespoons of oil until softened and caramelized before pouring in the sauce and whisking to combine.

Why do you put vinegar in tomato sauce? ›

Flat or bland sauce likely needs a hit of something acidic to lift and enhance its flavors, such as a small splash of high-quality, flavorful vinegar, a squeeze of fresh lemon juice, or a few drops of not-too-fiery hot sauce.

Should you simmer tomato sauce with lid on or off? ›

Cooking the tomato sauce over a low and steady heat with the lid on is essential to obtain a pleasantly thick consistency. The lid keeps the moisture inside the pan, preventing the sauce from drying out too quickly. The low heat then allows the flavours to develop gradually, slowly softening the vegetables.

How do I make my sauce thicker and creamier? ›

The most readily available sauce-thickener is flour. For a too-thin sauce, try adding a slurry (equal parts flour and water, whisked together) or beurre manie (equal parts softened butter and flour, kneaded together to form a paste)—both are ideal thickeners for rich and creamy sauces, such as steak sauce recipes.

Why is my creamy sauce not thickening? ›

You can make a cream sauce thicker by reducing it on the stovetop. If reducing the sauce doesn't work, or if you're in a rush, you can use a thickener to bulk up your sauce. Flour, butter, eggs, and cornstarch are simple ingredients that can make your cream sauce thicker.

What to put in spaghetti sauce to make it taste better? ›

Maybe it needs a touch of salt, red pepper flakes, or some fresh garlic to liven it up. You could add dried or fresh herbs too: oregano, basil, thyme, tarragon, parsley—they're all great! Want to go next level? Toss in some chopped anchovies (or anchovy salt), olives, or some lemon zest and/or juice.

Can I use crushed tomatoes instead of tomato sauce? ›

Whole, stewed, diced, or crushed canned tomatoes work wonderfully. First, drain off the liquid in the can and put it aside.

Can you use ketchup instead of tomato sauce for spaghetti? ›

With a sweet and sour flavor profile and an almost gel-like consistency, ketchup is decidedly not tomato sauce. Please do not use ketchup as a sauce for pasta! Yet, like tomato soup, ketchup can add the sweetness of tomatoes to a recipe.

What is a substitute for 1 cup of tomato sauce? ›

For this swap, David Joachim, author of The Food Substitutions Bible, recommends you use ½ cup tomato paste and ½ cup water to replace 1 cup of tomato sauce—just keep in mind that you'll need to season your substitute to taste.

How do you get the depth of Flavour in tomato sauce? ›

  1. Use mushrooms to give your sauce umami flavor. ...
  2. Get fancy and make a sauce heartier with a brunoise. ...
  3. Add jarred sauce to a pan of onions and garlic. ...
  4. Add hand-torn basil for a fresher, deeper taste. ...
  5. Fennel seeds can add flavor to a sauce. ...
  6. When in doubt, add sauce to the sauce. ...
  7. Use a combination of fresh and dry herbs.

Should you add lemon to tomato sauce? ›

But say the tomato's acidity is muted, its flavor a tad too close to cloying. A shot of red wine vinegar might do the trick here, but that adds its own flavor; a small splash of humble lemon can brighten the sauce exponentially without stealing the spotlight.

Does cooking tomato sauce longer make it taste better? ›

Tomatoes naturally contain lots of water, so cooking any tomato sauce for a long period of time will help eliminate some of the water content. The water will slowly but surely evaporate, leaving behind a thickened, full-bodied sauce with lots of flavor.

Do Italians put sugar in spaghetti sauce? ›

Usually no. But putting (a very small bit) of sugar or even a tiny pinch of baking soda in the tomato sauce can help if it is too acidic, but this is only done if the person cooking it is really in a rush.

What makes tomato taste better? ›

Well, if you really want to amp up the taste of your tomatoes, cream of tartar is your answer. Yes, there are other ways to make your tomatoes taste even better and increase the acidity. There is lemon, vinegar, or my personal favorite, balsamic.

What are the qualities of a good tomato sauce? ›

Bright red: the importance of color

The color of tomato sauce can tell us a lot about its quality. The tone of red must be bright and intense. We can learn two fundamental characteristics by looking at the color: 1) The intensity comes from ripeness and the tomato's time under the bright Italian sun.
