Ingredients

1 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil

1 medium onion, diced

3 garlic cloves, finely chopped or pressed through a garlic mincer

1 24 oz can of crushed tomatoes

1 Tbsp of tomato paste

1/2 tsp of sugar

1/4 to 1/2 tsp of crushed red pepper flakes

1/3 cup of dry Marsala wine (or any other dry red wine you may have on hand)

1 Tbsp of Italian seasoning

1/2 Tbsp of dried basil

2 bay leaves

1/2 Tbsp of dried Oregano

1/2 Tbsp of dried Thyme

1/2 Tbsp of Worcester sauce

Salt to taste

Directions

In a medium sauce pan over medium heat, add olive oil

Once olive oil is heated, add in diced onions and some salt (about 1/2 a tsp). Saute until tender (about 5 minutes). You may need to lower your heat if you notice your onions are browning.

Add minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds.

Add in all other listed ingredients, about 1/2 tsp more of salt, stir, and lower heat to low or medium low so that the pot maintains a simmer but is not boiling.

Stir the sauce every few minutes

After about 10 to 15 minutes, taste the sauce and adjust seasoning to your taste.

Let the sauce continue to cook for about another 10 to 15 minutes or until you feel the flavor has melded nicely.
