  1. Is tomato paste the same as tomato purée? And can I omit the beans ? Could I double the recipe for 8?

    1. Hi, tomato paste is the same as the british tomato puree that you will find in the tube. I use the word paste as it’s more universal.
      You can omit the beans if you prefer. And yes, double the recipe for 8 people.
