Tomate Frito, fried tomato

The flavoursome tomato sauce tomate frito is an important part of Spanish cuisine. It is made from sun-ripened tomatoes, sometimes garlic or onions and Mediterranean spices and embodies the true flavour of Spanish cuisine.

To enhance the sweetness of ripe tomatoes, they are first boiled down. Spices are then added to give the sauce a typical savoury note. From tapas to paella, tomato frito is often used as a base for many Spanish dishes. The sauce not only represents Spain's passion for high-quality, regional ingredients, but also gives dishes a flavourful depth. Tomato frito is therefore not only part of Spanish cuisine, but also a symbol of culinary diversity and the love of good food.
