Roasted Tomato Sauce - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    810 g whole tomatoes (large tin)
    1 large onion, peeled and cut into wedges
    2 garlic cloves, sliced
    4 -6 anchovies
    1 teaspoon sea salt
    1 teaspoon sugar
    1/4 cup olive oil
    1/2 cup water
Preparation
    Have your oven hot and preheated to 180\u00b0C.
    Place the tomatoes, and the juice, in a baking tray with the onion wedges, garlic and anchovies scattered over top.
    Sprinkle over sea salt and sugar.
    Pour over the olive oil and water and roast for 1 1/2 hours, stirring every 20 minutes.
    Towards the end of the cooking time use a wooden spoon to scrape up any of the well cooked bits around the edge of the tray. If it looks like it is drying out too much add a little more water.
    Place in a food processor (I used a hand blender) and whiz for a few seconds to a smooth sauce (as smooth as you like it). Enjoy straight away or refrigerate until ready to use.
