Marinara Sauce

  • Number of Servings: 8
Ingredients
1 Tablespoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil2 Tablespoons Canola Oil1 Can - 28 Ounces - Crushed Tomatoes1 Can - 6 Ounces - Tomato Paste1/2 Cup Finely Chopped Onion4 Cloves Garlic, Minced1 Teaspoon Salt1 Teaspoon Black Pepper1 Tablespoon Oregano3 Tablespoons SugarI made this today and found it was too sweet for me, so you may to cut back on the sugar if you don't like a sweet sauce.
Directions
Heat a large pot over medium heat. Add the oil and swirl to coat the bottom of the pan completely. Add the onion and garlic and saute, stirring occasionally, for about 7 minutes, until browned. Lower the heat if they begin to burn. The more color that develops on the onion and garlic, the more flavor they’ll add to the finished sauce.

Once the onions and garlic are tender and caramel in color, add the crushed tomatoes and the tomato paste and stir until the mixture is smooth and well combined.

Add the remaining ingredients (oregano through pepper), stir, and bring the mixture to a simmer. Lower the heat to the lowest setting, cover and let cook for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally so that the bottom does not burn.
