  • You can find recipes like this on dedicated cooking websites and in books about the world's cuisines. I use this recipe often - I've saved it not only on my computer but also in my recipe notebook. I recently read a very interesting and informative article saying that tomatoes become even healthier after cooking than they are fresh. It's a well-known, scientifically confirmed fact! And this dish is built on them. It turns out tomatoes rank second (after olives) in lycopene content - a powerful natural antioxidant that helps fight heart disease and cancer. It's known that cooking increases the lycopene in tomatoes: by a third after 3-5 minutes, and one and a half times after 15 minutes. So our sauce isn't just delicious - it's very good for you too!
