My Super Easy Tomato Sauce

It can barely be called a recipe, but it does make a quick and delicious tomato sauce. Use it on pizza, with pasta, or wherever you need a marinara-type sauce.

Ingredients

1 tbsp olive oil

3 cloves of garlic, finely grated (preferred) or finely chopped

400 g tin of (organic) chopped tomatoes

1 tbsp dried Italian herbs

Generous pinch of (coarse sea) salt

Preparation

– Pour the oil into a small lidded saucepan and add the grated garlic. NOW heat the oil on a low heat, stirring every now and again until the garlic starts to sizzle but not brown.

– Add the tomatoes, herbs and salt and mix well.

– Increase the heat to medium high and bring to a boil, then turn heat down slightly.

– With the lid half on (to prevent splattering) simmer and thicken the sauce for about 10 minutes, stirring a few times.

– Using a (stick) blender, blitz the sauce until smooth.
