Pizza #2 - Tomato Vegetable Sauce for Pizza and Pasta

Vegetable Tomato Sauce - Blended - Max M Rasmussen
A good tomato sauce can make all the difference. Whether it is for covering a pizza base or to put on a portion of pasta. You can find recipes online with oven roasted tomatoes, cheese and wine. A sauce does not those to be good. My recipe is simple, but there is also a few "secrets" hiding in it.

Ingredients

  • 1 can of diced tomatoes, or 250 grams of fresh
  • 1/2 onion
  • 1/2 bell pepper
  • 1-2 cloves of garlic
  • 1 tsp vinegar (First Secret)
  • 1 tsp sugar (yes it is the 2nd dirty little secret)
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • salt (approximately 1 tsp)
  • black pepper 

Directions

Chop the vegetables for into approximately (1 cm) 1/2 inch cubes cubes.

Put everything into a saucepan.

Let it simmer for an hour or two until it is very soft. Add a little water if it becomes too thick to simmer.

If you do not like lumps in your sauce, then run a hand blender through it.

Season with salt and pepper.
