CRUMBED PORK, PASTA WITH TOMATO AND BASIL SAUCE

Use pasta of your choice….Penne works well. Cook as per package suggestion and keep warm.
Sauce:
1 tbsp olive oil
1 garlic clove, crushed
400g can chopped tomatoes
1 tsp vegetable stock powder or ½ crumbled stock cube
1 tbsp tomato purée
1 tsp sugar
few basil leaves
Heat the oil in a pan, add the garlic, then gently fry for 1 min.
Tip in all the other ingredients, except the basil, then bring to the boil.
Reduce the heat, then simmer uncovered for 5 mins, stirring occasionally.
To finish, tear the basil leaves, then stir into the sauce.
Note: I used some grated Parmesan on pasta just before serving.
