Key steps include sautéing onions and garlic, cooking chopped tomatoes until pulpy, simmering with water and seasonings, blending to desired consistency, and a final cook to thicken.

Homemade tomato sauce is lighter, fresher, and has the goodness of natural ingredients. This sauce can be used for pasta, pizzas, and everyday snacking.
1 kg ripe red tomatoes, chopped 2 tbsp olive oil 4 cloves garlic, finely chopped 1 small onion, finely chopped 1 tsp sugar 1 tsp salt ½ tsp black pepper powder ½ tsp dried oregano or mixed herbs ¼ cup water
In a pan, heat olive oil and add chopped onion and garlic to it. Sauté it lightly until it turns soft and aromatic.
Add the chopped tomatoes to this and cook on medium heat until they turn soft and begin to release their juices, turning a bit pulpy.
Pour in water, cover, and let it simmer for about 10–12 minutes, letting the flavours blend while the sauce thickens naturally.
Add some salt, sugar, black pepper, and dried herbs. Stir everything well to balance the sharpness
Let the mixture cool down a bit, then blend the sauce until it gets a smooth consistency or keep it a little chunky, as per preference.
Cook it again for a few minutes, uncovered, until it gets shiny and thickens a bit. Let it cool a bit and store appropriately in an airtight jar.
