  2. 1 medium onion chopped fine
  3. 2 cloves of garlic minced
  4. 1 28 oz tin of san marzano tomatoes-chopped fine or put through a food mill
  5. handful of fresh basil-torn into bite size pieces
  6. salt and pepper to taste
  7. chili flakes to taste
Instructions
  1. Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a pan.
  2. Add onion and garlic and saute till the onion is translucent.
  3. Add the tomatoes, salt, pepper, chili flakes, fresh basil and simmer for 20 mins.
Notes
  1. If you have rinds from your parmesan reggiano cheese, drop one or more into the sauce to elevate the flavour. You can also use the rinds in soups or stews-Delicious!
  2. I keep a bag in the freezer full of my rinds for this purpose!
