Enough sauce for 500g of cooked pasta
Ingredients
2 (400g each) tins of diced or whole tomatoes
1 Clove of Garlic
Fresh Basil EV Olive oil Sugar Salt
Method In a saucepan add a little oil, throw in your basil and a clove of garlic that you've squashed with your knife, cook for a few seconds and add in tomatoes.
Season with salt and add 1/2 tsp sugar.
After about 10 minutes of cooking I usually blend the sauce with a stick blender, make sure you remove the garlic clove if you don't want it too strong.
If you add a little more fresh olive oil you will find that it will emulsify and have a smooth and creamy consistency.
Continue to cook and close to the end add some more fresh basil.
In total the sauce only needs about 30 mins of cooking.
Enjoy x
My Tip: You can also use a bottle of passata, it won't need any blending.
