preparation
1. Heat the oil in a small skillet with the garlic. When you can smell the garlic, add the tomatoes with their juices and the herb, crushed between your fingers. Cook over a lively heat, smashing the tomatoes against the pan to break up the larger chunks. Stir in the tomato paste to fortify the flavor. Taste for salt-it may not need any—and season with pepper.
