Ingredients

  • 1 medium white onion
  • 5 cloves garlic
  • ½ cup white wine
  • 2 (28-ounce) cans whole peeled San Marzano tomatoes
  • 1 teaspoon dried basil
  • 1 teaspoon dried parsley
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • Salt & pepper to your taste
  • Fresh basil leaves

Instructions

  • In a saucepan heat olive oil over medium -low heat, and sauté the onion for 2 to 3 minutes or until tender and translucent; add minced garlic and saute for 30 seconds.
  • Add white wine and let it reduce over medium heat for 2 minutes. This will evaporate the alcohol and concentrate the sugars.
  • Next, add the canned tomatoes and, using a hand blender, crush them until your desired consistency. Add 1/2 cup of water, dried basil ( I also added fresh basil leaves), and parsley. -Season with salt and pepper to your taste and give it a stir. Bring the mixture to a bubble and reduce to low heat.
  • Let it simmer for 25 to 30 minutes, occasionally stirring to avoid sticking to the bottom of the saucepan. This is pretty much it Enjoy!
