Heat the olive oil in a large casserole dish over a moderate heat. Sweat the onion, garlic for 10 minutes with a little salt, stirring occasionally until they are soft but not coloured.

Bring to the boil then reduce to a simmer for 30 minutes.

Strain into a large, clean saucepan, pressing the tomatoes and all other ingredients through the sieve to extract as much flavour as possible.
