Thick tomato mezze with olives and preserved lemon
I really hit a blank naming this thing. This is, in a word, the most damn delicious thick tomato sauce I’ve done, and it’s got no thickeners or starch in it. But what to call it??
This is a fantastic mezze for a Turkish or mediterranean spread, quick and easy to whip up, and pairs perfectly with some chunky bread and olive oil.
With that said though, we discovered this while hunting for a basic tomato pasta sauce, which kinda took it’s own direction with cumin and lemon zest and a few other goodies adding flavour.
