Ingredients
2 pounds plum tomatoes, cored and halved
1 small yellow onion, sliced ¼-inch thick
2 medium carrots, peeled and sliced ¼-inch thick
8 garlic cloves
1 teaspoon fine sea salt, plus more to taste
¼ teaspoon black pepper, plus more to taste
7 tablespoons Olive on Tap Roasted Garlic Flavor-Enhanced Olive Oil, divided
3 anchovy fillets, finely chopped (optional)
4 teaspoons fresh basil, chopped
¼ teaspoon granulated sugar
Directions

1. Roast the vegetables
Preheat oven to 425°F.

Place tomatoes, onion, carrots and garlic on a large rimmed baking sheet. Season with salt and pepper, then drizzle with 3 tablespoons Olive on Tap Roasted Garlic Olive Oil. Toss everything together and spread into an even layer.

2. Let the oven do the work
Roast for approximately 35 minutes, or until the tomatoes have broken down, the garlic is very soft and the carrots are fork-tender.

3. Blend until silky smooth
Transfer the roasted vegetables to a blender or food processor. Add the anchovies, if using, fresh basil and sugar.

With the blender running, slowly add the remaining 4 tablespoons Olive on Tap Roasted Garlic Olive Oil. Blend for about 30 seconds, or until smooth and creamy.

Taste and adjust with additional salt and pepper as needed.

4. Serve & enjoy!
Toss with freshly cooked pasta, spread over pizza dough, use as a dipping sauce for crusty bread, or spoon over grilled chicken or vegetables.
