Ingredients

4 stalks of celery washed and chopped into 2-inch pieces.
1 tablespoon avocado oil
3 cloves garlic chopped
1/2 teaspoon granulated onion powder
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 cup parsley chopped
1/4 cup tomato sauce
1/4 cup water
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 teaspoon sesame oil

For the sauce if making from scratch

5 pounds of Tomatoes
3/4 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons avocado oil or olive oil
1 tablespoon tomato paste
1 garlic clove halved
1 basil sprig
1 bay leaf

Instructions

Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat, add celery, and cook until tender, about 3 minutes.
Then, add garlic, onion powder, garlic powder, cilantro or parsley, tomato sauce, water, and soy sauce. Cook constantly, stirring for about 3 minutes.
Remove from heat, stir in sesame oil, and serve.

For the sauce

Cut each tomato half horizontally, take out the seeds and discard. Mash the tomatoes in the grater and take the pulp of tomatoes into a bowl.
Pour the prepared tomato pulp into a wide saucepan at a high temperature. Add olive oil, tomato paste, basil, garlic, and bay leaf. Bring it to a boil and lower the temperature to a brisk simmer.
Let the sauce reduce to almost half and stir it occasionally. To achieve 2 1/2 cups of medium-thick sauce, you need about 10 to 15 minutes. Taste and adjust the salt and flavor of your choice.
