Making pizza at home can be a fulfilling experience. While the crust and cheese get their due importance, there’s nothing quite like the pizza sauce. Here's a recipe to ace the sauce at home.
1000 grams crushed tomatoes 1 tablespoon olive oil 1 onion 3 cloves garlic 1 teaspoon dried oregano 1/2 teaspoon dried basil 1/4 teaspoon chilli flakes 1/2 teaspoon salt 1/4 teaspoon black pepper 1/4 cup water
Heat some olive oil and saute onion and garlic.
Add mashed tomatoes, oregano, basil, chilli flakes, salt, and pepper. Let it simmer.
Once the sauce thickens, adjust the seasonings.
To get rid of chunks, blend the sauce till smooth.
Spread on a pizza base, add the toppings and cheese, and bake.
