Steps:
- In a large pan heat the extra virgin olive oil over medium heat until just shimmering. Add the onions, garlic, and finely grated carrots. Cook for about 5 minutes, stirring regularly until softened.
- Add the crushed tomatoes and about 1/2 cup water. Add a generous pinch of salt and pepper. Stir in oregano, paprika, crushed pepper flakes, if using. Finally, stir in the fresh basil and parsley.
- Bring the sauce to a boil, then turn heat to low. Cover and let simmer for about 15 to 20 minutes. Check partway through, and if you feel the sauce is too thick, you can add a bit more water (preferably some of your pasta cooking water). When sauce is ready, throw in more fresh basil, if you like.
- If serving for dinner, add cooked pasta of your choice to the sauce. Mix to combine and let the pasta cook in the sauce over low heat for about 5 minutes.

Add a little water or some low-sodium broth if it needs more liquid.
- After an hour, add the minced parsley, basil and the Parmesan rind if using (or grated Parmesan if you prefer--or both!). Stir to combine, and then put the lid back on and allow it to simmer for another 30 minutes or so. Discard the bay leaves before serving.
- Serve a big bowl of oiled noodles and the spaghetti sauce so guests can serve themselves. Top each serving with minced parsley and grated Parmesan (or Parmesan shavings) and serve with a big piece of garlic-cheese bread.

Tips:
- Use ripe tomatoes: The riper the tomatoes, the sweeter and more flavorful your sauce will be. If you can, use fresh tomatoes from your garden or a local farmer's market. Canned tomatoes can also be used, but be sure to choose high-quality tomatoes that are packed in tomato juice, not water.
- Sauté your vegetables: Sautéing the vegetables in olive oil before adding them to the sauce helps to bring out their flavor and sweetness. Be sure to cook the vegetables over medium heat so that they don't burn.
- Use a variety of herbs and spices: Herbs and spices add depth and flavor to spaghetti sauce. Some popular herbs and spices to use include basil, oregano, thyme, rosemary, garlic, and red pepper flakes. You can also add a bay leaf to the sauce for extra flavor.
- Simmer the sauce for at least 30 minutes: Simmering the sauce for at least 30 minutes allows the flavors to meld together and develop. The longer you simmer the sauce, the better it will taste.
- Taste the sauce and adjust the seasonings as needed: Be sure to taste the sauce before serving and adjust the seasonings as needed. You may want to add more salt, pepper, or herbs to taste.
Conclusion:
Spaghetti sauce is a delicious and versatile sauce that can be used on a variety of dishes. It is a great way to use up fresh tomatoes and vegetables, and it can be easily customized to your liking. With a little planning and effort, you can make a delicious spaghetti sauce that your family and friends will love.
