Ingredients:

  • can of chopped tomatos
  • two shallots, roughly sliced
  • two cloves garlic, finely sliced
  • a few mushrooms, roughly chopped
  • 2-3 tsp sundried tomato paste
  • sprinkle of dried crushed chillies
  • drizzle of balsamic vinegar
  • spinach, roughly chopped
  • olive oil

    • Fry shallots and crushed chillies in a drizzle of oil for a few minutes. Add garlic and cook for another minute. Add mushrooms and balsamic vinegar, and cook until mushrooms are done. Stir in sundried tomato paste and chopped tomatos and heat through. Add spinach and cook for a couple more minutes until spinach is soft.

    For a thicker sauce, forget the chopped tomatos and reduce the amount of tomato paste.
