MARINARA SAUCE, SIMPLE

By seamline

Ingredients

• 4 tablespoons grapeseed or olive oil
• 1/2 small onion, sliced
• 1 box Pomi tomatoes (strained)
• 1 box Pomi tomatoes (chopped)
• 2 garlic cloves, crushed
• 1 tablespoon salt
• 1/2 tablespoon black pepper
• 6 fresh basil leaves

Preparation

Step 1

1. Heat the oil in a medium sauce pan over medium high heat.

2. Add the onions and saute until they are translucent.

3. Remove the onions using a slotted spoon, keeping as much of the oil in the pot as possible.

4. Add the remaining 6 ingredients and bring to boil.

5. Reduce heat to low, and simmer for 40 minutes.

6. Adjust seasoning if necessary.

*Tip for chopping the basil: Place the leaves on top of one another, and roll them up like a cigarette. Take your knife and chop the leaves horizontally. Then chop again into finer pieces.
