Tomato Cream Sauce, Italian Sauce for Pasta
by Tarla Dalal

The right proportions of tomato pulp and puree, with onions and garlic for a strong flavour and herbs for aroma, what more could one ask for? A little cream, of course!

A lacing of cream while preparing tomato sauce transforms the flavour and consistency, making it richer and creamier.

Enjoy the tomato cream sauce as a dip with savoury snacks, or use as required in Italian recipes like pizzas and pastas .
