Name: Marinara Sauce Recipe
Prep time: 5 min
Cook time: 20 min
Yield: 8 servings
Ingredients: 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil; 8 cloves garlic ((crushed with your knife, then finely sliced)); 28 oz San Marzano tomatoes ((canned. You need both the tomatoes and all the juices)); 1 tsp oregano ((or basil. Use dry or, if using fresh, bump up to 1 tbsp. In summers I like using fresh basil. Use a sprig with about five large leaves of basil, whole)); 1/2 tsp red pepper flakes ((or more if you like your sauce spicier)); Ground black pepper ((optional. You can use some of this instead of the red pepper flakes, or use half of each)); Salt to taste
