Salsa de Tomate Saludable para Espaguetis

Ingredientes

• 2 14 oz cans of diced tomatoes ((2 x 400 g))
• 3 tbsp tomato paste
• 3 tbsp finely chopped basil
• 1 onion
• 3 garlic cloves
• 1 tbsp olive oil

Preparación

1. 1

   First, you should finely chop the onion and mince the garlic.

2. 2

   Heat the olive oil in a large pot. Add the onion, and saute for a few minutes until the onion is soft and translucent.

3. 3

   Then, add the tomato paste and garlic, and saute for about 30 seconds while stirring until they are warmed up.

4. 4

   Add the canned diced tomatoes and salt, and stir to combine.

5. 5

   Cover with a lid, and leave the sauce to simmer on very low heat for up to 1 hour. Give the sauce a stir every 20 minutes to ensure that it doesn’t burn.

6. 6

   You can either keep the sauce chunky, or if you prefer a smooth spaghetti sauce, you can use an immersion blender or a regular blender to blend it completely smooth.

7. 7

   Lastly, finely chop fresh basil, and add this to the sauce a few minutes before serving.
