Fresh Tomato Garlic Sauce

Ingredients:

6 fresh  Roma tomatoes peeled and seeded

6-8 large  Garlic cloves  sliced

¼-1/3 Cup   Extra virgin olive oil

2 Cups  Water

2 Tbsp.  Chicken stock powder

2 Tbsp.  Fresh chopped parsley

Salt and pepper to taste

Method:

In a large sauté pan on medium heat, add the olive oil, garlic and the tomatoes. Season lightly with salt. Cook for 2-3 minutes then add the chicken stock, a cup and a half of the water and the parsley. Continue cooking uncovered while pressing down on the tomatoes until they puree. Cook for 20 minutes and add the additional water if needed. When the tomatoes have taken on a smooth consistency and the sauce has thickened, season with salt and pepper to taste.
