Step by Step Method
Step 1
Slice the tomatoes in half and place on a rimmed baking sheet, sliced side down and broil them for 10 to 12 minutes until skin is darkened and loosened.
Step 2
Remove from oven, allow to cool, remove and discard the skins and mash the tomatoes to break them apart; set aside.
Step 3
Pour the anchovy oil and anchovy fillets in a heavy bottomed pot and bring to medium-high heat; mash the anchovy fillets with the back of a wooden spoon.
Step 4
Add the diced onion, celery, bell pepper, carrot and garlic; cook until onion is translucent and veggies are tender but crisp; add the vodka and continue to cook until the vodka is evaporated and vegetables just start to stick.
Step 5
Add the capers, tomato paste and caper juices, tabasco sauce, sugar and herbs and stir to combine.
Step 6
Stir in the mashed tomatoes, tomato clam cocktail and tuna and cook until slightly boiling, reduce heat and simmer for a couple of hours.
Step 7
Serve over your favourite pasta noodles.
