Portuguese Tomato Sauce Ingredients and Cooking Method

Portuguese Tomato Sauce Ingredients and Cooking Method

The Portuguese sauce is a hearty tomato sauce made with sautéed onions, garlic, tomato concassé and parsley.


Tomato concassé (pronounced "conk-a-SAY") is a fancy culinary term to describe tomatoes that have been peeled, seeded and roughly chopped.


This recipe calls for 1 quart of the classic tomato sauce, which is one of the five so-called mother sauces of the culinary arts. You could instead use 1 quart of basic tomato pasta sauce, which is easier to make.


Portuguese Tomato Sauce Ingredients 

1 quart of tomato sauce
3/4 cup onion (finely chopped)
2 cups tomato concassé
1 clove garlic (minced)
1/4 cup parsley (chopped)
dash kosher salt (to taste)
dash pepper (to taste)
Steps to Make It
Gather the ingredients.

Portuguese Tomato Sauce Cooking Method


In a heavy-bottomed saucepan, sauté the onions until they're translucent, about 5 minutes.​

Add the tomatoes and garlic and continue to sauté until the tomatoes are soft, about 10 minutes.​

Add the tomato sauce, bring to a simmer and reduce for about 10 minutes.​

Season with the salt and pepper and serve right away.

Serve and enjoy!
