Sauce Base

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Sauté Onion and Garlic

    In a medium-sized saucepan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the finely chopped onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes. Then, add the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until fragrant, being careful not to burn the garlic.

  2. 2

    Add Tomatoes and Seasonings

    Pour in the crushed tomatoes and stir to combine. Add the salt, black pepper, dried oregano, dried basil, and sugar. Stir well to incorporate all the spices into the sauce.

  3. 3

    Simmer the Sauce

    Bring the sauce to a gentle simmer and reduce the heat to low. Allow the sauce to cook uncovered for about 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.

  4. 4

    Finishing Touches

    Once the sauce has thickened to your desired consistency, remove from heat and stir in the fresh chopped basil. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.
