This is my version of the classic aurore sauce, a velouté sauce flavoured with tomatoes. I use this sauce for Cannelloni with Crab and Spinach.

Fortified with a cream and egg yolk liaison, tomato cream sauce is also good for gratin dishes finished with breadcrumbs and gruyère cheese before glazing under a hot grill; try
