About

This basic tomato sauce recipe is a staple in my house. I always have a batch in the freezer ready to turn into a delicious family meal. Use it as a simple pasta sauce or mix it with some mascarpone for something a bit more luxurious. You can also use it for pizzas or pour over chicken breasts and bake in the oven.

Method

Heat the oil in a large saucepan and add the onions and garlic. Sauté for about 3 minutes until the onions have softened.
Add the rest of the ingredients, bring to the boil and then reduce to a low simmer for 30 minutes.
You can serve the sauce as it is or blitz it to make it completely smooth.
