Ingredients

  • ⅔ cup onion, diced (110 g)
  • 2 cups canned diced tomatoes (including their juice) (510g)
  • 2 cups  tomatoes, diced (380 g / any variety)
  • 1⅓ cup fresh basil, chopped (30 g)
  • 1 cup tomato paste (225 g)
  • 2⅔ tbsp garlic, minced (25 g)
  • 1½ tsp dried oregano
  • 1½ tsp salt

Instructions

  • Heat a large saucepan over medium heat and add the onions.
  • Cook for 5 minutes until they brown, stirring intermittently. Add a splash of water if the onions begin to stick.
  • Add the canned tomatoes, fresh tomatoes, basil, tomato paste, garlic, oregano, and salt. Stir until all ingredients are combined.
  • Turn the heat down to low and cover with a lid at an angle. Simmer for one hour, stirring every 10-15 minutes so the sauce doesn’t stick to the bottom of the pan. Taste for seasoning and serve.
