E-mail Story

 


Ingredients:
1  tablespoon olive oil
1 1/2 cups diced onions
1  sweet red pepper, diced
2  gloves garlic, minced
4  cups chopped fresh plum tomatoes or
    canned crushed tomatoes
2  cups water
1/4 cup minced fresh basil
2  tablespoons minced fresh mint

Instructions:
In a 4 quart saucepan, combine the oil, onions, peppers and garlic. Cook over medium-high heat for 1 minute; cover, reduce heat to low and cook for 5 minutes.
Add the tomatoes, water basil and mint. Bring to a boil over medium heat and simmer, uncovered, for 15 minutes, or until the vegetables are just tender.

Preparation Time: 10 minutes

Chef's Note:  Mint and tomatoes make a beautiful pair. The sweetness of the mint counteracts the natural acidity in the tomatoes and eliminates the need for added sugar.
