  • 🥘 1 large saucepan

📝 Instructions

Step 1

Heat the extra virgin olive oil (or butter) in a large saucepan over medium-high heat until melted. Add crushed red pepper flakes and sauté for 2 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Step 2

Add small yellow onion (finely diced) and sauté for 5 minutes or until softened and translucent, stirring occasionally.

Step 3

Add garlic (minced or pressed) and sauté for 2 minutes more or until fragrant, stirring occasionally.

Step 4

Add in the whole tomatoes (preferably San Marzano) and stir to combine. Continue cooking, breaking up the tomatoes with a wooden spoon or potato masher, until the sauce reaches a low simmer.

Step 5

Reduce heat to medium to maintain a steady simmer. Let the sauce cook uncovered for about 25 minutes to 30 minutes, stirring occasionally, until thickened and desired consistency is reached.

Step 6

Stir in the fresh basil leaves (packed, torn or roughly-chopped), fine sea salt, and freshly-cracked black pepper. Taste and season with extra salt, pepper, or crushed red pepper flakes as needed.

Step 7

Serve immediately or refrigerate in a sealed container for up to 4 days.
