Add the cornstarch/water mixture and stir over low heat until the sauce thickens, about 1 minute. Tomato Sauce (makes 1 1/2 cups): 1. Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the shallots and garlic. Cook for 2 minutes, stirring constantly. 2. Add the tomatoes and cook uncovered until the tomatoes are soft, about 7 minutes. Stir in the basil and cook for 1 minute.
