"tomato" Sauce
- Reviews 1
Ready In: 2 hrs 20 mins
Serves: 4-6
Ingredients
- 1 (6 ounce) can tomato paste
- 1 (28 ounce) can whole tomatoes
- 1 teaspoon oregano
- 1 dried leaf basil (if I used any tomatoes canned with basil in the can I skip this ingredient)
- 1⁄2 onion, diced
- 1 tablespoon salt
- 1 teaspoon pepper
- 1 teaspoon sugar (or less... I sometimes leave this one out)
- 2 garlic cloves, diced
- 1 -2 teaspoon olive oil (enough to cover the bottom of the pan for sauteing)
Directions
- Sauté garlic and onion in olive oil.
- Add tomato paste plus one can of water and simmer for a few minutes.
- Add strained can of whole tomatoes plus 1/2 can of the water from that can (I found this step annoying and silly and I always ended up adding more liquid in the process anyway! So I just throw the whole can in at this point - liquid and all plus a half of a can of water.).
- Add all of the remaining ingredients and cook for 2 HOURS (stir and enjoy the aroma intermittently throughout the process).
