Share:
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1/2 cup onion chopped
- 3 cloves garlic
- 1 (28 ounce) can whole peeled tomatoes (D.O.P. tomatoes from Italy are best)
- 1 teaspoon salt (or more to taste, salt until acidity from tomatoes is mellowed out)
- 4-5 basil fresh leaves
Instructions
- Place olive oil in a heavy sauce pan or Dutch oven over medium heat. When oil is hot, add chopped onion and garlic. Sauté until onions become transparent.
- Add tomatoes and reduce to low heat. Simmer for about 10 minutes or until tomatoes become softer. Add salt as needed.
- Mash tomatoes with a potato masher until juices are released. You can also add the tomatoes to a blender or food processor and pulse a few times until roughly blended.
- Add more salt if needed and continue to simmer until sauce has reduced to desired thickness.
- Tear basil leaves into smaller pieces and add to the sauce. Stir to combine.
- Remove from heat and serve hot or allow to cool before serving .
