Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
How to make tomato sauce for shish kebab from tomato paste with cilantro and garlic? Prepare all the products listed on the list. Instead of cilantro, it is permissible to use parsley or basil. If you use several fresh herbs at the same time, you will get a richer and more flavorful sauce. I used about 25 grams of cilantro and 5-7 grams of parsley. Choose good quality tomato paste.

Step 2

Step 2
If you have thick tomato paste, dilute it with water. How much water should I use? Make sure that the tomato mass has a consistency similar to sour cream. I had a very thick paste, so I needed about 150-200 ml of water. Add the tomato paste to the frying pan and bring to a boil while stirring constantly. Next, remove the pan from the heat and cool the tomato mass.

Step 3
Place the tomato paste in a blender bowl. Peel the garlic and pass through a press. Add to blender.
