Yummy Pizza Sauce

Inspired by SAMS_Club's Ultimate Pizza Sauce. I made a version more suited to our tastes and our metric kitchen.

• Ready In: 1 hr 20 mins
• Serves: 4
• Yields: 1 large pizza bottom

Ingredients

• 3  tablespoons olive oil (plain)
• 1  tablespoon margarine
• 5  big onions
• 5  garlic cloves
• 1200  g chopped tomatoes (canned)
• 150  g tomato puree
• 2  tablespoons dried basil
• 2  tablespoons dried oregano
• 1  tablespoon salt
• 1  tablespoon sugar
• 2  teaspoons ground black pepper
• 4  bay leaves
• 7  tablespoons parmesan cheese

Directions

1. In a large pot, melt the margarine and oil. Add onions and saute. After a couple of minutes, add the garlic. Let everything go a bit soft and shiny.
2. Add tomato ingredients.
3. Add everything except the bay leaves and parmesan and stir well. Bring to a simmer and lay the bay leaves on top. Simmer for an hour or more, until the sauce is thick.
4. Remove the bay leaves and add the parmesan cheese.
5. (Our favorite dough for the pizza is herbed pizza dough - my recipe or chef Texas mom's).
