Spaghetti Sauce From Scratch

Step 1

Remove the cores and roughly dice the tomatoes.

Step 2

Heat olive oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add diced onions and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add garlic, tomatoes, thyme and basil, and bring to a boil, stirring frequently. Reduce heat to medium-low and allow to simmer for an hour, stirring occasionally. Using a spatula, periodically press down on the tomatoes to help break them down. Add salt and pepper to taste.

Step 3

Remove the sauce from heat and blend. BE CAREFUL, sauce will be very hot. Can use an immersion blender. Return the sauce to the pan on a low heat.

Step 4

15 minutes before serving, warm up water and cook the pasta according to package directions.

Step 5

Strain the pasta and place sauce on top. Serve warm and enjoy!
