How To Make Homemade Tomato Sauce

Below are the step-by-step instructions to convert the gorgeous looking tomatoes into jars of delicious red sauce. Making tomato sauce isn't very hard, but it takes some time.

Ingredients

1. Tomato - 500 Grams (cut a tomato into 4 pieces) 
2. Sugar - 1/2 Cup 
3. White Vinegar - 2 Tablespoons 
4. Kashmiri Red Chili Powder - 1/2 Teaspoon 
5. Salt as per taste 

Direction/Method

1. Take 1/2 kilo of fresh tomatoes and cut each tomato into 4 pieces. 
2. Add the chopped tomatoes into a pressure cooker and a little bit of water. 
3. Close the lid and pressure cook the tomatoes for about 4 whistles until they are cooked nice and soft. 
4. After 4 whistles, switch off the flame. 
5. Don't open the pressure cooker right. Wait for the pressure to reduce in the cooker, it may just take some time. 
6. Ensure that the tomatoes are cooked nice and soft. 
7. When the tomatoes are not hot anymore, take transfer them into a blending jar and blend the boiled tomatoes into a smooth paste. 
8. When the paste is ready, strain the paste to remove the pulp. 
9. Also, strain the remaining tomato water into this. 
10. What we now have is tomato puree which is used to make tomato sauce. 
11. Next step is to take a saucepan and heat it from some time. 
12. When the pan is hot enough, add tomato puree and cook them for about 4 to 5 minutes on medium flame. It is very critical to keep stirring the puree while it is being cooked. 
13. When the puree becomes little thick in consistency, add 1/2 cup of sugar, 1/2 teaspoon of Kashmiri red chili powder, 2 tablespoons of white vinegar and salt as per taste. 
14. Mix them well and cook them for about 10 minutes on a low flame until the puree becomes thick. 
15. Keep stirring it again, in between. 
16. When the consistency of the sauce becomes thick, add few drops of the sauce on a plate and slightly tilt the plate. 
17. If no liquid or water coming out of the sauce, that means the tomato sauce is ready. 
18. Switch off the flame and allow the sauce to cool down to the room temperature and then it can be transferred to a serving bowl or stored in any jar.
