Ingredients

Execution Steps

  1. 1

    Add the crushed tomatoes, grated carrot, minced garlic, oregano, and olive oil to the slow cooker.

  2. 2

    Stir thoroughly to combine.

  3. 3

    Cover and cook on LOW for 6 hours to slowly reduce and concentrate flavor.

  4. 4

    Stir in the fresh basil leaves in the final 10 minutes of cooking.

Tomatoes contain acidic compounds that can taste harsh when boiled quickly. The network has calculated that a 6-hour thermal reduction decomposes these acids while concentrating natural sugars. The addition of a grated carrot acts as a organic sweetening vector.
