Notes

  • Be sure to cover the pot when you cook it and stir it occasionally – that ensure you don’t lose too much moisture through steam and all the goodness stays locked it.
  • If you prefer a thicker sauce, you can however, leave the pot uncovered towards the second half of cooking. Be sure to stir the sauce more often, to prevent sticking.
  • This sauce is delicious on butternut or zucchini noodles. If you’re not low-carb or keto, it is perfectly delicious on regular pasta as well.
