🍅 Marinara Sauce

1 litre · prep 10 min · cook 40 min

Ingredients

• 800 g San Marzano peeled tomatoes
• 4 garlic cloves
• 6 tbsp olive oil
• 1 sprig basil
• 1 pinch sugar
• 1 pinch chili
• Salt, pepper

Method

1. Heat the olive oil over LOW heat and infuse the sliced garlic until pale gold, never brown.
2. Add the peeled tomatoes crushed by hand (not blended: the texture should stay rustic).
3. Season, add the chili and a pinch of sugar if the tomatoes are sharp.
4. Simmer uncovered 35-40 min: the sauce should darken and the oil rise to the surface.
5. Add the basil off the heat and remove it before serving.
