Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
How to make tomato sauce for pizza? Prepare your food. Choose tomato paste without additives; it should contain only tomatoes. Instead of olive oil, regular, odorless vegetable oil will do. But it will taste better with olive oil. In addition to basil, you can add other spices; I like to add oregano or a mixture of Italian herbs.

Step 2

Step 2
Peel the garlic and cut into thin slices.

Step 3

Step 3
Peel the onion and chop it very finely.

Step 4

Step 4
To prepare the sauce, it is better to use a thick-bottomed pan or a non-stick frying pan. I took the frying pan. Heat olive oil in a frying pan and add garlic. Simmer the garlic over moderate heat for 1 minute to give the oil a light piquant aroma. At the same time, turn the garlic slices a couple of times so that they do not burn. Then remove the garlic from the pan.

Step 5

Step 5
Place chopped onion in a frying pan and fry it over low heat until golden brown, stirring occasionally.

Step 6

Step 6
Add tomato paste to the onion and stir. Warm the tomato paste over low heat for 1 minute.

Step 7

Step 7
Pour in water and stir.

Step 8

Step 8
Add salt, sugar, dried basil or other spices to the sauce and stir. I advise you to taste the sauce to add the missing ingredients. Let the sauce simmer.

Step 9

Step 9
Simmer the sauce over low heat until thickened, about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove the sauce from the heat and let it sit, covered, for 15 minutes. You donʼt need to keep the sauce on the fire for too long, otherwise it will be too thick. In addition, after cooling, the sauce will thicken even more.

Step 10
Tomato sauce is ready. You can start making pizza. Happy baking!
