Ingredients:

Serving

2 tbsp olive oil ( canola is ok)
1/2 onion, chopped
3 garlic cloves, minced (or more, to your taste )
28 oz chopped tomatoes , petite cut (canned)
2 tbsp tomato paste
2 tbsp sugar (or less , to taste)
1/4 tsp black pepper
3/4 tsp kosher salt
2 tsp mixed italian herbs, dried (or fresh chopped basil , i use penzey's pasta sprinkle)

Directions:

Heat olive oil over medium heat. Add chopped onions; you could also use shallots if you had them. Cook until soft, a few minutes. Add garlic and saute for about a minute.
Add tomatoes, tomato paste, sugar, salt and pepper. Bring to boil, then reduce heat to the point where the sauce still simmers. Add dried herbs. Simmer for 15-20 minutes. (While it’s simmering, you can smash the sauce up a bit with a ricer or pastry blender, to break up some of the tomatoes-depends on how chunky you like your sauce.) If using fresh basil, add now.
