Pasta Sauce
As an Italian I can tell you my favorite food is pasta and sauce. I’ve tried a lot of sauces out there and this is one of my favorites. This is a recipe that has some heat to it, so if you’re not a fan of that, feel free to scale it back or eliminate it all together.
What you’ll need:
1 Tablespoon olive oil
1 Cup Chopped Yellow onion
1 Teaspoon Minced Garlic
½ Cup Red Wine
½ Cup of water
28 Ounce Can Crushed Tomatoes
1 Teaspoon Red Pepper Flakes
1 Tablespoon Chopped Parsley
1 Teaspoon Kosher Salt
½ Teaspoon Black Pepper
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet. Add the onion and sauté over medium heat until translucent, 5 to 7 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for another minute longer. Add the wine and cook on high heat, until almost all the liquid evaporates, about 3 minutes. Stir in the tomatoes, parsley, salt, and pepper. Add your water gradually until desired thickness. Cover, and simmer on the lowest heat for 15 minutes. Spoon over top of pasta top with fresh basil and cheese, if desired, and serve. Enjoy
