Instructions
- Cut the garlic into small pieces then sautè it in a large pan with the extra virgin olive oil.
- If you have chosen peeled tomatoes (fresh or canned), crush them coarsely with a fork. In this case you will get a more rustic sauce with chunks of tomato. If, on the other hand, you have chosen passata, you will get a smoother, more uniform sauce. It's a matter of taste.
- Add the tomatoes to the garlic soffritto, stir well and let it cook for about 15 minutes. Finally, add a pinch of fine salt.
- Add the oregano and, if you like, also a tablespoon of finely chopped fresh parsley.
- Stir to mix the spices well and turn off the heat. The marinara sauce is ready. You can use it for dressing pasta or pizza. Or it can be eaten plain, either hot or cold, depending on how you want to use it.
Notes
- PLEASE NOTE: Garlic should be crushed or cut into very small pieces. In this way it will be able to cook in about 10 to 15 minutes and will be more digestible releasing all its aroma. Garlic is a key ingredient in this recipe for this reason we do not recommend leaving it whole and then removing it as in other recipes.
