Sofrito is the base of many dishes here in Spain.
Basic recipe:
finely chop 2 cloves garlic and 1 medium onion - fry slowly in oil till soft but not brown.
add one tin chopped tomatoes. Simmer on very low heat for about 5 mins. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Try adding some of your favourite herbs too.
The above can be enhanced by adding red cooking wine and reducing it. You can also add other vegetables (before adding tomato) like green or red peppers, courgettes, aubergines, carrots... anything you fancy. Make sure the vegatables are soft before adding the tomato.
Can be served on meat, chicken, fish, pasta, rice...
A good substitute for sofrito in a recipe is a mix of sauted onions, garlic, bell peppers, and tomatoes.
