KEZZA'S CHUNKY PIZZA SAUCE
My boyfriend and I had the most fantastic pizza in Italy during our travels, even the takeaway stuff is fantastic. Through trial and error (and expanding waistlines) we think that I've found a good approximation of a home-made pizza sauce we had in Cassino when we went down there for the 60th commemorations last year.

Steps:
- Heat the olive oil in a medium saucepan, on medium heat.
- Saute the onions and garlic until translucent, but do not allow to burn or brown.
- Add the herbs and saute for 1 minute.
- Add the tomatoes and tomato paste (and salt & pepper to taste) and simmer for 60 minutes on low heat (I use 2/6) until reduced to a thick sauce. I taste this every 10 minutes and sometimes add pepper if required.
- Cool, and use on your favourite pizza bases. Can be used on 4 x medium bases (if you like a lot of sauce), or 6 bases if you like a thinner covering. You can also puree this with a Bamix if chunky sauce isn't your thing (plus, it goes further if you puree it).
CHUNKY PIZZA SAUCE
I like a thick, chunky pizza sauce with more flavors than just tomato. I couldn't find a recipe like this, so I combined bits from two or three others and made my own.

THE NAKED WHIZ'S SIMPLE CHUNKY PIZZA SAUCE
Steps:
- Heat the oil in a 1-1/2 qt sauce pan. Cook the onion and garlic until softened and translucent, about 3 minutes. Stir as necessary. Add tomatoes, crushing lightly with your hands as you add them. Be sure to add the juice, too. Strip the leaves of oregano from the stem and then chop roughly. Add the oregano and the sugar. Simmer, stirring occasionally for about 20-30 minutes, until thickened. Add salt and pepper to taste.
Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients: The better the ingredients, the better the sauce will be. Use fresh tomatoes, garlic, and herbs, and a good quality olive oil.
- Don't skimp on the garlic: Garlic is a key ingredient in pizza sauce, so don't be afraid to use a lot of it. A few cloves of garlic will give your sauce a delicious depth of flavor.
- Use fresh herbs: Fresh herbs, such as basil, oregano, and thyme, will add a lot of flavor to your sauce. If you don't have fresh herbs on hand, you can use dried herbs, but they won't be as flavorful.
- Simmer the sauce for at least 30 minutes: Simmering the sauce allows the flavors to develop and meld together. The longer you simmer the sauce, the better it will taste.
- Taste the sauce as you go: Season the sauce to your liking. You may want to add more garlic, herbs, or salt and pepper. Taste the sauce as you go and adjust the seasonings as needed.
Conclusion:
This chunky pizza sauce is a delicious and versatile sauce that can be used on a variety of pizzas. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. Whether you like your sauce thick or thin, spicy or mild, this recipe is sure to please. So next time you're making pizza, give this chunky pizza sauce a try. You won't be disappointed.
