Step 1

Rinse tomatoes under running water and dice them. Puree them in a blender.

Step 2

Heat oil in a pot and add finely chopped garlic. Saute for 1 to 2 minutes until garlic becomes aromatic.

Step 3

Then add red chilli flakes if using and give a quick mix.

Step 4

Pour the tomato puree and stir. Cover immediately and cook on a medium to low heat until the sauce thickens slightly. This takes about 15 mins.

Step 5

Stir in between to prevent the tomatoes from burning. Be careful as the sauce splashes. You may turn down the heat and stir.

Step 6

Then add salt, sugar, oregano, black pepper and basil. Mix and continue to cook for another 5 mins, until the sauce becomes thick. When it is done you will see traces of oil on the sides and top.

Step 7

Turn off and add more salt if needed. Cool this completely and store in an air tight glass jar.

Step 8

Pizza sauce keeps good in the refrigerator for 2 weeks and for 3 months when frozen.
