Red sauce serves as the basis for the preparation of other sauces derived from it. Today I will be preparing a somewhat simplified, homemade version of the red main sauce.
The flour for its preparation should be fried until golden in advance, in the oven, and cool. But I will do it right in the pan. If sauces are constantly on your table, not only, then it makes sense to stock up on ready-made flour for the sauce.
If the red sauce is planned to be served with fish, then it should be prepared from fish broth, and if it is served with meat, for example, then in meat broth.
Toast the flour in a dry frying pan until golden brown. Set aside, let cool. Then you can dilute the broth, introducing it into the flour in a thin stream. Mix well so that there are no lumps.
Cut the onion into small cubes, grate the carrots, parsley. In the original recipe, vegetables need to be cut, keep this in mind.
Pass all the vegetables in oil, then add the tomato paste. We are waiting for the mass to boil.
Now add the flour diluted in the broth, mix and bring the red main sauce to a boil, always under the lid.
Boil the sauce over low heat for about 10 minutes. At the end of cooking, add salt, sugar and pepper to taste.
Now the sauce needs to be filtered, its thick part is processed with the help of mashed potatoes. Return to the liquid part and bring to a boil again. You can add a little more butter to the finished hot red sauce.
Serving with meat
- cook the sauce in meat broth + 2 tbsp. potrvein at the end of cooking.
Serving with a fish dish
- cook the main red sauce in fish broth + chopped pickled gherkins, a handful of olives and a slice of lemon at the passivating stage (except for the lemon - it is at the end).
Preheat oven to 180°C. Wash the bones, dry, put on a baking sheet. Place the bones in the oven and cook, turning occasionally, for 1 hour.
Transfer the bones to a large saucepan, pour in 3 liters of water. Add 1 carrot and 1 onion fried in a dry frying pan, parsley root, black peppercorns, 1 bay leaf and salt. Bring to a boil, remove foam. Close the pan with a lid and cook over medium heat for 4 hours. Remove the bones from the pan, strain the broth. Let cool. Remove all fat from the cooled broth.
Prepare the vegetable dressing the next day. Wash tomatoes. Scald them with boiling water and remove the skin. Grind tomatoes in a blender. Peel the remaining carrots and onions and chop coarsely. Melt the fat in a pan and fry the vegetables in it until brown, 5 minutes. Add chopped tomatoes, cook over medium heat, stirring, 15 minutes. Transfer vegetables to a large saucepan.
Fry the flour in a dry frying pan, 1.5 minutes. Bring strained broth to a boil. Whisking constantly, add flour. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 2 minutes.
The sauce is red, like in kindergarten - many people associate the gravy recipe with childhood. But, even knowing all the ingredients and their proportions, few people get exactly the same familiar and memorable taste. It seems that the technological scheme of preparation is clear - but everything is not right. Now you can learn how to make red sauce with and enjoy its taste.
The recipe for red sauce and the technology for its preparation are quite simple. The flow sheet for this meat sauce (prepared as in a canteen) contains the following:
The preparation of red sauce begins with the preliminary cleaning of vegetables. Then they are finely chopped.
Onions and carrots are sautéed in vegetable oil. Tomato paste is diluted in hot boiled water and poured into vegetables, then finely chopped parsley root is added and everything is poured over vegetables. Bring the roast to readiness.
Melt the butter in a saucepan and fry the flour on it until it turns from white to cream. Then add cold water to it in a ratio of 1:4 and stir very quickly with a whisk, trying to break up all the lumps that have formed.
Strain the meat broth and bring to a boil. After that, a flour solution is poured into it through a sieve carefully, in a thin stream, with constant vigorous stirring. Stir until the broth boils again and thickens.
Add vegetable frying and leave to simmer over low heat for about 45 minutes. After that, pour sugar, salt and spices into the sauce (if desired). Boil everything for 15 minutes. Pour the resulting gravy through a sieve into a clean pan, squeeze the vegetables with a spoon and place back into the sauce. Put it back on fire and let it boil. After that, let the dish brew a little and serve it to the table.
Delicious red sauce - just like in the garden - is ready. It is served with pasta, mashed potatoes, meat dishes, sausages. It is great for stewing meatballs and meatballs.
Do not try to shorten the time - it is in the observance of the cooking technology that the secret of the special taste of red sauce lies.
If you want to make a hot sauce, add at the end, when laying sugar and salt, hot pepper or mustard seeds. Determine the quantity according to your taste.
Red gravy is also prepared for meat filling - this is an excellent addition to spaghetti. To do this, fry half a kilo of minced meat and add it half an hour before the end of the first boiling of the dish.
During the preparation of the red main sauce, the following spices can be added: bay leaf, allspice (peas), dried garlic, basil, coriander.
During the boiling process, do not dilute the broth with water - this will spoil its taste. To prevent the liquid from boiling off very quickly, cook the meat sauce only on the lowest heat.
Red meat sauce is one of the most vivid gastronomic experiences of childhood for many people. If you want to experience this taste again, then try the suggested recipe. Making a red sauce like the one you get in a canteen doesn't take much effort, and you'll definitely love the result.
