Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large saute pan over medium-high heat. Add the peppers and then shake the pan to coat them with oil.
• Add the tomatoes and, if using canned tomatoes, about 1/2 cup of the juice. Add the basil, salt and pepper to taste and cook, stirring from time to time, for 20 to 30 minutes.

Steps:

• Heat oil in large sauce pan on med high heat.
• Add onion, then garlic.
• Stir about 1-2 minutes.
• Add red pepper and stir around about 5 minutes.
• Add wine, broth and spices.
• Reduce heat and simmer about 20 minutes.
• Pour out of pot to a blender/food processor.
• Blend until smooth and return to pot.
• Simmer 15 minutes.
• Ready to serve.

Steps:

• Cook the onions in a little oil until softened and translucent. Add the garlic and cook for a further minute, then add the peppers and cook for a further 5 minutes. Add the tinned tomatoes, red wine, herbs and season well. Mix thoroughly and simmer down for 20 mins or so.
• Squeeze the baby plum tomatoes between your fingers and rip the flesh into 3 or 4 pieces, adding the flesh and the juice to the sauce. Cook down a little more. If you want the sauce for fish or chicken, you need to cook it down to a thick consistency. If it is for pasta on its own you want it a bit runnier. If it is for pasta and meatballs you want it runnier still as it needs to coat the pasta as well as the meatballs. Use your judgement. Whichever way you are serving this sauce it is great with freshly grated parmesan over the top!
