To make vegetable sauté with tomato paste sauce, cook chopped vegetables in a little oil until nearly tender. Stir in tomato paste, let it cook briefly, then add a splash of water and simmer until the vegetables are cooked but still hold their shape.
Bell peppers, zucchini, eggplant, onion, and tomatoes all work well in vegetable sauté with tomato paste sauce. Use a mix you enjoy, adding firmer vegetables such as carrots or potatoes earlier so everything finishes cooking at about the same time.
Yes, but canned tomatoes make vegetable sauté with tomato paste sauce wetter and less concentrated in flavor. Add them gradually, cook uncovered to reduce excess liquid, and adjust the seasoning after the vegetables have softened.
Vegetable sauté with tomato paste sauce can taste bitter if the paste or garlic scorches in the pan. Cook the paste briefly over moderate heat, stir it often, and add liquid as soon as it smells fragrant rather than letting it darken.
Cut the vegetables into similarly sized pieces and avoid cooking them longer than needed. Add firm vegetables first and quick-cooking ones later; a wide pan also helps them sauté instead of steaming in their released moisture.
Vegetable sauté with tomato paste sauce goes well with rice, couscous, crusty bread, or a spoonful of yogurt. To make it a more substantial meal, serve it with beans, lentils, eggs, or grilled chicken.
Yes, vegetable sauté with tomato paste sauce can be made ahead and reheated. The vegetables may soften as they sit, so cook them slightly less than you prefer, refrigerate the cooled dish in a covered container, and reheat it gently.
Yes, frozen vegetables work in vegetable sauté with tomato paste sauce. Add them straight to the pan rather than thawing them first, and cook uncovered so their extra moisture can evaporate before you finish the sauce.
Use a wide pan and cook vegetable sauté with tomato paste sauce uncovered so steam can escape. If the vegetables release a lot of liquid, let it reduce before serving; adding more paste alone can make the sauce overly intense.
Yes, vegetable sauté with tomato paste sauce freezes well, though zucchini and eggplant can become softer after thawing. Cool it first, freeze it in airtight portions, then reheat it in a pan and let any excess liquid cook off.

Vegetable sauté with tomato paste sauce is a flexible, home-style dish made by cooking assorted vegetables in a pan and flavouring them with tomato paste. The vegetables vary with the season and what is on hand; in Turkish and broader eastern Mediterranean cooking, onion is often used as a savoury starting point, though recipes differ.
The finished dish can be tender or retain a little bite, depending on the vegetables and cooking time. Serve it as a light main with bread, rice or bulgur, or alongside another dish. It is mostly vegetables and relatively low in calories, at 68 kcal per 100 g. For a lighter pan, use a modest amount of oil and avoid overcooking the vegetables.
