Sun Dried Tomato Marinade

This sun-dried tomato marinade is a versatile staple for any kitchen, offering a deep, savoury intensity that complements everything from grilled chicken to roasted Mediterranean vegetables. By simmering the tomatoes with white wine and aromatics, you create a concentrated base that is remarkably rich in flavour. It is an excellent choice for those following a low-sugar diet, as it relies on the natural sweetness of ripe tomatoes balanced with a touch of balsamic vinegar and fresh citrus.

Prepared in under an hour, this homemade sauce is far superior to shop-bought alternatives and can be kept in the fridge for up to a fortnight. The addition of fresh basil, flat-leaf parsley and a hint of chilli flakes provides a bright, herbaceous finish. Whether you are planning a weekend barbecue or looking for a healthy way to liven up a weekday dinner, this zesty marinade is a reliable and delicious solution.

Ingredients for Sun Dried Tomato Marinade

  • 80ml chopped sun-dried tomatoes

  • 3 tablespoons brown sugar or molasses

  • 475ml tomato sauce

  • 120ml white wine

  • Grated zest and juice of 1 lemon (about 3 tablespoons )

  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano

  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh basil

  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh flat-leaf Italian parsley

  • 1 teaspoon crushed red pepper or red pepper flakes

  • 1 teaspoon coarse-grain salt

  • 1 tablespoon freshly cracked black peppercorns

  • 80ml balsamic or red wine vinegar

How to make Sun Dried Tomato Marinade

Combine the sun-dried tomatoes, brown sugar, tomato sauce, and wine in a small nonreactive saucepan and bring to a boil over medium heat. Immediately decrease the heat so that the sauce barely bubbles, and simmer for 1 hour, until reduced to 240ml . Remove the mixture from the pan and cool to room temperature.

Combine the tomato reduction, lemon zest and juice, oregano, basil, parsley, red pepper flakes to taste, salt, peppercorns, garlic, and vinegar in a blender or a food processor and process until all the ingredients are blended. Stored in a clean, airtight container, this will keep in the refrigerator for 2 weeks.
