Tomatoes Salteado

🇪🇸 Spanish

A Spanish pan dish built on sofrito: onions cooked low until sweet, paprika bloomed in olive oil, and Tomato simmered until tender in a sauce the colour of amber. Lemon and parsley to finish.

Prep 10 min Cook 7 min Serves 3 Easy

Ingredients

  • Saltto taste
  • Tomato6 large
  • Garlic4 cloves, minced
  • Bell Pepper1, sliced
  • Tomato Sauce2 tbsp
  • Olive Oil2 tbsp
  • Spring Onions3, cut into batons
  • Smoked Paprika1 tsp
  • Sherry2 tbsp

Optional extras

  • Fresh Parsleyhandful, to finish

Instructions

  1. 1

    Warm the olive oil in a wide paella pan or heavy skillet over medium heat until it flows easily.

  2. 2

    Sear the Tomato until golden on all sides, then push it to the edges of the pan.

  3. 3

    Soften Garlic in the middle of the pan, adding Smoked Paprika after a few minutes, building a sofrito — low and slow, five full minutes.

  4. 4

    Season with paprika and salt and stir for thirty seconds so the paprika blooms without scorching.

  5. 5

    Add the liquid, bring to a confident simmer, and let everything cook until the Tomato is done and the sauce has thickened and glossed.

  6. 6

    Rest off the heat for five minutes, finish with lemon wedges and parsley, and serve from the pan.

Chef's tip

Let the dish rest 5 minutes off the heat before serving so the flavours settle.
