Fresh Tomato Sauce

Time: 40 mins

Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 1 1/2 cups onions, diced
  • 2 teaspoons garlic, minced (I typically increase this to a tablespoon since I love garlicky pasta sauce)
  • 3 (14 1/2 ounce) cans plum tomatoes, crushed
  • 1/2 cup reserved meatball pan dripping (meatball recipe posted separately)
  • 1/2 cup fresh parsley, minced
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
  • salt (to taste)

Directions

  • 1 Heat olive oil over medium high heat in a large dutch oven or similar pan.
  • 2 Saute onions in oil for approximately 4 minutes, or until translucent. Add garlic and cook for an additional 30 seconds.
  • 3 Add the tomatoes, pan drippings, parsley, sugar, red pepper flakes. Salt to taste.
  • 4 Simmer for 15 minutes.
  • 5 If you are using meatballs with the sauce, add the cooked meatballs after the 15 minutes and simmer for an additional 10 minutes.
