As much as I already have culinary experience, so much I continue to experiment. The kitchen does not like monotony, so new, more original than usual dishes constantly come into our lives. And you always want to serve them and add a new sauce. Without sauces, nowhere, because they have become so popular. In all restaurants and cafes, meat and vegetables are served with various sauces: mushroom, meat, garlic, mint, cream or even soy. I suggest you try making a delicious tomato sauce that is very easy to prepare even for any novice in cooking. We will prepare the sauce from the usual, familiar tomato paste with garlic and herbs. With this sauce, you can marinate a wonderful meat kebab. Or cook any, and then serve this tomato sauce separately to them, it will also be very tasty. In time, the sauce cooks just instantly, so start cooking when the meat is already almost fried and ready.

- ¼ tsp. l. granulated sugar,
- 15 grams of olive oil,

- any fresh herbs (I have dill, green onions and a little parsley).
Recipe with photo step by step:
I finely crumble the sharp white, onion, peeled from the husk, sprinkle it with salt, sugar, squeeze a little lemon juice on it, pour water (30 grams - half of the norm) at room, normal temperature and leave to marinate for 5-6 minutes. 
I add a little olive oil to the pickled onions. 
I dilute the tomato paste (it should be real, thick) with the remaining water, stir with a spoon until the lumps disappear. 
Pour the pasta to the pickled onion, stir. 
I squeeze a couple of cloves of garlic for piquancy to the sauce.
