This isn't a meal as such, but is an essential starting point for anyone learning to cook. All you need is a few ingredients and you have got a really useful and versatile sauce which you use with pasta, spread on bruschetta or pizza bases.
You can also blitz it up, add some veg stock a have as a tomato soup. It’s also a good starting point for any stew or curry.
The ideas is to make this sauce up to 24 hours in advance (keep it covered in the fridge and rewarm as needed), because the flavors improve with time.
...and it's cheap to make!
Ingredients
1 tin (400g) Chopped Tomatoes
2 tbsp Olive Oil
2 Garlic Cloves
1 tsp Fish Sauce
1 tbsp Hendersons RelishInstructions
1. Heat the oil in a large pan and gently fry the grated garlic until slightly browned.2. Pour in the tomatoes and add the Hendersons and Fish Sauce. Stir and cook gently for about 30 minutes, until reduced to a thick sauce.
3. Season with salt & pepper. – If you are feeling posh, you can toss in a few basil leaves!!!

Brian's Pasta
Ingredients
* Your favorite sausage (I prefer a spicy chicken sausage)
* Pasta of choice (works best with Ziti or Rigatoni
* sliced garlic
* EV Olive Oil
* String Beans
* small cherry tomatoes on the vine
* Chopped fresh Basil
* Chopped Parsley
* Sea Salt, crushed black pepper, freshly ground hot pepper
* bit of wineOK, bring the pasta to a boil. You can do that, right? Salt in the water, no oil. Meanwhile, slice the sausage and sautee that in a pan with a bit of olive oil. Just brown them a bit on both sides. Remove and place aside. add some more olive oil and throw in the sliced garlic, chopped basil, cook for a bit, but before it browns (golden or otherwise) throw in the string beans (I usually chop them so they're about 1 inch in length). stir until the garlic gets goldeny brown and the string beans get a bit translucent. A few minutes. Remove this from the pan. Now place the cherry tomatoes, on the vine into the pan, drizzle a wee (and I mean wee) bit of olive oil on them and sea salt and let them just cook up up in the pan there for a few. Don't even turn them. Nothing. When they start to split just a bit they're ready and you can put the whole thing together.
So, plate the pasta with the sauasage, garlic, basil & string beans, apply sea salt, bit of black pepper and a general application of the hot pepper flakes (I like mine hot). Top with the now pan roasted cherry tomatoes, garnish with a touch of chopped parsley, drizzle just a bit of fresh olive oil on the top to get that good EV olive oil flava and serve with wine of choice.
Delicious, easy, quick and nutritious.

A little bit of me and a whole lot of you
Add a dash of starlight and a dozen roses, too
Then let it rise for a hundred years or two
And that's the recipe for making loveIt doesn't need sugar cause its already sweet
It doesn't need an oven cause its got a lot of heat
Just add a dash of kisses to make it all complete
And that's the recipe for making loveAnd if you've made it right you'll know it
Its not like anything you've made before
And if you've made it wrong you'll know it
cause it wont keep you coming back for moreI didn't get it from my grandma's book upon the shelf
I didn't get it from a magical and culinary elf
No, a little birdie told me you cant make it by yourself
And that's the recipe for making love
