Ingredients:

Number of portions: 8
1 Tablespoon(s)
olive or avocado oil
1
medium sweet onion, diced
4 Clove(s)
garlic, chopped
2 28 oz (3 500 ml) diced tomatoes (can be fire roasted)
2 Teaspoon(s)
salt
1 Teaspoon(s)
dried basil
1/2 Teaspoon(s)
dried parsley
1 Leaf(s)
bay
1 Tablespoon(s)
extra virgin olive oil

Preparation:

Preparation time: 15-30 min.
  1. Prepare Dutch Oven: Heat a Dutch oven over medium-high heat.
  2. Add Olive Oil: Pour in the olive oil and heat it until it shimmers.
  3. Saute Onions: Add the onions to the heated oil and sauté them until they become translucent. Be cautious not to brown them; this should take about five minutes.
  4. Add Garlic: Once the onions are translucent, add the garlic cloves. Saute and continuously stir until the garlic becomes fragrant, which usually takes about 1 minute.
  5. Incorporate Tomatoes and Seasonings: Pour in the tomatoes along with their juices. Add the salt, basil, and parsley to the mixture. Stir everything thoroughly. Place the bay leaf on top of the mixture.
  6. Bring to a Simmer: Increase the heat to high and allow the liquid to come to a simmer. Once it starts simmering, adjust the heat to medium-low or low to maintain a consistent simmer with slow, large bubbles.
  7. Cover and Simmer: Cover the Dutch oven and let the mixture simmer for at least 20 minutes. Stir occasionally during this time. The tomatoes should deepen in color as they cook.
  8. Turn off Heat: Once the cooking time is completed, turn off the heat.
  9. Finish with Extra Virgin Olive Oil and Blend: Drizzle the sauce with extra virgin olive oil. Then, using an immersion blender, puree the sauce until it reaches your desired consistency.
