Sauce Ingredients

Method

Sauce Preparation

  1. 1

    Sauté Garlic

    In a medium saucepan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1-2 minutes, until fragrant but not browned.

  2. 2

    Add Tomato Sauce

    Pour in the tomato sauce, stirring to combine with the sautéed garlic. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.

  3. 3

    Season the Sauce

    Add the balsamic vinegar, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper to the sauce. Stir well and let it simmer for an additional 5-7 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.

  4. 4

    Finish with Fresh Basil

    Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the chopped fresh basil. Let the sauce cool for a couple of minutes before serving.
