Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • ½ cup / 125ml Oil
  • 2 medium Onion
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 2 cloves Garlic
  • 28 oz / 800g Tomato sauce
  • ¼ cup / 30g Capers (optional)
  • ½ cup / 50g Olives (optional)
  • 1 tablespoon Basil
  • 1 tablespoon Oregano

Instruction

  • Dice up onions.
  • Heat olive oil in a pan then saute the diced onion on high heat until it gets a glassy / translucent look for about 3-5 minutes.
  • Add the crushed garlic and saute until it gets fragrant for about a minute.
  • Mix in the pureed tomato.
  • Add the optional capers and olives.
  • Stir everything together nicely then place a lid halfway on pan and cook the sauce until its water content is somewhat reduced, for about 20 - 3o minutes.
  • 10 minutes before finishing, stir in basil and oregano. With aromatic herbs -especially fresh ones- it is recommended to wait until the end so the dish can keep their scent.
