While I often use this sauce with pasta or spiralised zucchini, this mixture can be paired with a number of dishes. With a baked potato, crumbed eggplant, falafels, on toast with a poached egg or even as a dip with Turkish or pita bread. While this recipe contains simple, versatile ingredients, jarred artichoke, eggplant and chorizo may also be used to add flavour.
