Simple Tomato Sauce

Posted 2018-02-05 by Maddy Butler ⇒ follow

Tomato and basil always make a lovely combo, especially in this pasta sauce, which is an easy and quick dinner or lunch. I cooked the sauce for 30 minutes, but you could cook it in about 15 minutes for a rapid 20 minute dinner.

Preparation Time: 5 minutes
Cooking Time: 30 minutes
Serves: 4

Ingredients
1 tbsp olive oil
2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
2 cans chopped tomatoes
1 tbsp balsamic vinegar
Handful basil leaves
400g pasta

Method

Bring a pot of water to the boil and cook the pasta.

Meanwhile, heat the olive oil in a frying pan over medium heat.

Add the garlic for 30 seconds, then add the tomatoes, half of the basil leaves and the balsamic vinegar. Stir through.

Bring to the boil, then simmer for about 20 minutes, stirring often, or until thickened.

Pour over the pasta and serve into bowls. Garnish with the remaining basil leaves.
