Alot of recipes call for long simmering times, but often I don't have the time to wait so this is a shorter version, which still taste great. It is on the sweeter side, but it still has an earthy flavor. Ingredients:
3 -4 tablespoons olive oil |
1 medium onion, chopped |
4 garlic cloves, chopped |
1 (30 ounce) can tomato sauce |
2 (6 ounce) cans tomato paste |
1/2 cup water |
0.5 (28 ounce) can hunts crushed tomatoes |
1 green pepper, diced |
4 tablespoons brown sugar |
2 -3 teaspoons black pepper |
1/2 tablespoon sea salt |
2 -3 tablespoons dried oregano |
2 -3 tablespoons dried basil |
1 tablespoon dried parsley |
1/2 tablespoon garlic seasoning |
Directions:
1. Heat oil in a large skillet, add onion and garlic and saute till golden.
2. Add to garlic and onions tomato sauce, paste, water, and crushed tomatoes and stir until blended.
3. Add green pepper, brown sugar(dark brown sugar home-made from 3 tbls. molasses and 1 cup sugar tastes great in this sauce),pepper, salt, oregano, basil, parsley, and garlic seasoning.
4. Stir until seasonings are blended and simmer on med-low heat covered 45 min stirring occasionally.
5. Have a taste and add more seasonings if you desire.
