Our slow-cooked Italian tomato sauce

What makes our new Italian meals taste so good? It's all about the slow-cooked tomato sauce we use. It's made with only the best 100% Italian tomatoes, harvested at their peak for the ultimate in freshness and sweetness. They're slow-cooked for three hours to create depth and intensity of flavour. The best part? There are no artificial flavours or colourings in our sauces, only carefully sourced store cupboard ingredients you’d find at home. It's no wonder our new Italian meals taste of pure sunshine.

Try them all yourself and get three of our Italian dishes for just £10 in the Foodhall now.

Discover Italian food by region

  • Northern Italy – Piedmont, Lombardy, Veneto

The north is known for rich dishes in creamy sauces like risotto and polenta. It’s famous for its high-quality truffles, heady cheeses like our Gorgonzola DOP Piccante, produced by the Arrigoni family in Lombardy, and wines like Barolo and Amarone.

  • Central Italy – Tuscany, Umbria, Lazio

Central Italy thrives on rustic, farm-to-table cooking with dishes. Get inspired with our hearty ribollita recipe or our creamy carbonara, made with Italian pasta.

  • Southern Italy – Campania, Calabria, Puglia, Sicily

The stunning hills and sunny coastline of the south produce glorious tomatoes, olive oil, aubergines, and seafood. Inspired by Naples, the birthplace of pizza, our Collection pizzas are made with a blend of Italian 00 flour, slow-fermented using a traditional process, and wood-fired in our Italian oven.
