Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
3 tablespoons olive oil
3 large onions -- sliced
2 large red bell peppers -- roasted, skinned, seeded, and pureed
2 tablespoons tomato paste
2 tablespoons chopped fresh basil
salt and freshly ground pepper to taste

Heat the oil in a large, heavy skillet over medium heat. Add the onions and saute until golden brown, about 20 minutes. Transfer the onions to a food processor and puree.

In a medium-size mixing bowl, stir together the onion puree, pepper puree, tomato paste, and basil. Season with salt and pepper. Serve at room temperature.

Yields about 1 1/2 cups.

While this very sauce is meant to be served with cold roasted or grilled (favorites), it is also delicious with [sea favorites] and freshly cooked pasta of all kinds. This sauce can be prepared one or two days in advance and stored in the refrigerator, but the onion taste will become stronger.
