How to Make Kuwaiti Tomato Sauce Dukkous Al Tamat
- Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add 2 cloves of crushed garlic and cook for 15 seconds, being careful not to burn.
- If using tomato paste (instead of fresh tomatoes), add 2 tablespoons and sauté for 30 seconds. Stir constantly.
- Add 1 (28-ounce) can of crushed tomatoes OR 4 cups of chopped fresh tomatoes. Season generously with sea salt to taste (if using canned tomatoes, you may need less salt).
- Add 1 teaspoon of sugar (optional, to balance acidity).
- Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat to low, cover, and cook for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Stir in 1 teaspoon of Baharat spice blend. Cook uncovered for 2-3 minutes, allowing the sauce to slightly thicken. Remove from heat.
- Serve hot over your favorite rice dish, or use as a base for a pasta sauce with seasoned ground beef.
- Store leftover sauce in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently before serving.
