Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Skin the tomatoes by scoring them and dropping them into boiling water and counting to 10 before removing them. Drain, rub the skin off, de-seed and roughly chop.
  2. Add the tomatoes to a large pot with garlic, bay leaves and cinnamon.
  3. Add enough water to barely cover them and bring them to the boil; skim, then turn the heat down and cook for 20 minutes, skimming occasionally.
  4. Add the shallots and continue to cook, uncovered, until they are soft, about 35-45 minutes. By then the tomatoes should have lost most of their liquid and the sauce should be beginning to thicken.
  5. Season to taste and stir in 200 ml (just over 3/4 cup) of olive oil, and cook for 15-20 minutes.
  6. Remove the sauce from the heat and while it is still hot, put it into a sterilised preserving jar. Float the remaining olive oil across the surface of the sauce to act as a seal.
  7. Allow to cool and store in the fridge where it will keep for 3-4 months.
