Pizza Spread

Hey y'all!!! J

I'm back with another tried & tested recipe for an aMMMMMazing spread! J You can use this on Pizzas, Calzones, Breads, with Idli, Dosa etc. It is veryyyy easy to make! I made this in 10 minutes! And it tastes good! :-D 
Of course, you don't really HAVE to make the spread at home. You could buy Pastorelli's Pizza Sauce for just $ 2.79! (Why, yes! I am advertising! J)

Making it at home is always good for 2 reasons:
1. You consume it fresh & don't add preservatives.
2. Since you make it, you have personal feelings attached to it which makes it even more delicious! Trust me, you wouldn't understand it unless you actually start cooking!



To make the sauce, you'll need-
Onions (finely chopped) - 2 medium sized
Tomato (finely chopped) - 3-4 medium sized
Green chillis (finely chopped) - 3-4
Salt - to taste (about 2 teaspoons)
Red Chilli Powder - 2 teaspoons
Pepper Powder - 2 teaspoons
Garlic - 6 cloves (cut into small pieces)
Oregano powder - 1 tablespoon (optional)
Vegetable Oil - 2 teaspoons

Method
1. Heat the oil in a pan. Add the green chilli, garlic, salt & onions & sauté for 1-2 minutes till the onions turn translucent.
2. Now add the oregano, red chilli powder, pepper powder & sauté for 30 seconds
 
 3. Add the tomato & sauté in high flame for about 5 minutes until the whole mixture is reduced to half due to the heat. Put the whole mixture in a blender/mixer & grind to a fine paste.
 
 4. Being an Indian, I like my spread to be very well cooked! So, I again poured the mixture onto the pan & let it cook for about 2 minutes. My brother loves ketchup. So I also added around 1 tablespoon full of ketchup to the mixture.
 
 There you go. Spicy, tasty Pizza spread ready! You can use this for a variety of other stuff too! ENJOY!
