Categories     Sauces

Time 1h5m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 (12 ounce) can tomato paste
1 (28 ounce) can stewed tomatoes
1 cup brown sugar
1/2 medium onion, diced
spices and herbs, to taste

Steps:

  • Saute the diced onion in a little bit of olive oil, butter, or cooking spray, in a medium saucepan over medium heat. (If you like garlic, you could add a few diced garlic cloves too).
  • Add the stewed tomatoes and the tomato paste. Stir to combine.
  • Add the brown sugar. Start with just 1/2 a cup. If you like it sweet, keep adding more. Here is when you can add salt, pepper, and any herbs like basil and oregano.
  • Turn the heat down to low and simmer for at least an hour. Stir every so often. The stewed tomatoes will keep breaking down the longer you cook it, so you can keep going for a less chunky sauce. The perfect sauce for any pasta that can also be used as a pizza sauce, or for meatballs, etc.

I've made this sauce several times now and it's always a hit. It's so simple to make and it tastes like it came from a restaurant. I love that I can use fresh or canned tomatoes, depending on what I have on hand.

I was skeptical about how good a pasta sauce made with only 4 ingredients could be, but I was pleasantly surprised. This sauce was delicious! I added a bit of garlic powder to mine, but otherwise followed the recipe exactly. It was perfect.
