Simple Tomato Sauce

1. 1

   Prepare the garlic: I like to smash the cloves to release some of their juices, then chop them into chunky pieces. Feel free to adjust the quantity of garlic. They can be sliced or minced as well.

2. 2

   Heat the olive oil in large pan on a medium flame. Add the garlic, and saute until light brow, about 4 minutes.

3. 3

   Reduce the flame and add the can of plum tomatoes. Remove any bay leaves that may have been in the can. Using a spoon or another utensil, break up the tomatoes. Once the desired consistency is achieved, turn the flame to medium-high.

4. 4

   Let the sauce cook for about 10 minutes, or until it has thickened. Add salt and basil to taste. Mangia mangia!
