Tomato sauce is a flexible component that may be used in a variety of meals, including soups, stews, pasta, and pizza. Making your own tomato sauce is simple and gives you control over the sauce’s quality and ingredients. Here is a straightforward recipe for homemade tomato sauce.

Ingredients:

2 pounds of ripe tomatoes
1 onion, chopped
3 garlic cloves, minced
2 tablespoons of olive oil
Salt and pepper, to taste
Optional: herbs like basil, oregano, or thyme, for flavor

Instructions:

To prepare the tomatoes, trim their stems and cut them into quarters. You can also remove the seeds and peels for a smoother sauce.

Sauté the onions and garlic by bringing the olive oil to a medium-low heat in a big saucepan. Cook the minced garlic and chopped onion after adding them for about 5-7 minutes, or until they are soft and fragrant.

Add the tomatoes and stir to combine: Add the tomatoes to the pan. Cook the tomatoes for 10 to 15 minutes, or until they are mushy and starting to break down.

Once the tomatoes have softened, take the pan from the heat and allow it to cool slightly before blending the sauce. Blend the ingredients using an immersion blender or in a blender or food processor until it is completely smooth.

Season the sauce: Add salt and pepper to taste and add the sauce back to the pan. Add fresh herbs for flavour, such as basil, oregano, or thyme, if desired.

Simmer the sauce: Over low heat, bring the sauce to a simmer. Continue cooking for an additional 10 to 15 minutes, or until the sauce has reached the desired thickness.

When the sauce has cooled, you may store it in the refrigerator or freezer in an airtight container until you’re ready to use it. As an alternative, you can serve the sauce over your prefered pasta right away or use it as the foundation for other dishes.
