Marinara sauce is one of those Italian sauces that you are going to use on almost every type of pasta sauce, spaghetti sauce, pizza sauce, Lausanne sauce, this sauce is very versatile and can be used for a lot of different things, and honestly tastes great.

And another fun fact, is you can easily buy this, and yes you can, but it also has a lot of preservatives, and not as healthy or even as good tasting. Sure its more convenient, and some times cheaper, but your sacrificing taste, and at the end of the day what do you want a cheap meal, or do you want something that has value and taste!

You might think this is a hard dish to make, and really it isn’t.

First question, do you have a good blender, if not do you have a good food processor? If you don’t have a good blender, take all the ingredients you have to chop and put them through a food processor, if not, chop them as fine as you can, along with the tomatoes take a potato masher and be ready to mash them once cooked, if you have a blender follow along, you can be creative on making things work!

Canned tomatoes are the best you can use for this unless you have ones grown from your garden, buying tomatoes from your grocery store isn’t as good as canned ones.

Phase 1 Choppy Choppy

1. Chop up one large onion, 2 whole garlics, 3 to 5 chili peppers.

Phase 2 Cook time!

This would be the easiest in a Wok, other wise a big pot might be better, or a very large frying pan.

1. Add a lot of extra virgin olive oil in your pan and heat it up really good, when its hot and bubbling then go to the next step.
2. Put your onions in and cook them until they start getting soft.
3. Add your garlic and cook them until they become fraquent.
4. Add in a few sprays of white wine, (You can use red, but its a bit heavier, rice wine would be ok too, or you can leave this step out.)
5. Add 3 cans of crushed tomatoes, you can add what ever type of canned tomatoes you want, for tomatoes they should be canned unless you have garden grown tomatoes, (those are best).
6. Add a lot of oregano, parsley and basil, and mix that in well.
7. Add some chili peppers, this step is optional.
8. Add some salt and pepper.
9. Cook this out until its done, and take it off of the heat.
10. Put the sauce through a blender.
11. Once cooled down bottle and fridge.

This is one of the most tastiest and amazing and far healthier than store bought, if you trying to entertain, this will really impress them, and if your going to do Italian, lets do it right, we hope you enjoyed this!
