Tomato Sauce

This Tomato Sauce is such a simple recipe that I make batches of it and freeze for another day. Goes so well with homemade meatballs and pasta (recipe also on this site).

1 medium onion, 1 1/2 tbsp dried mixed herbs, 4 cloves garlic, ground black pepper
Add the tomatoes and bring it all to a boil.

Once boiled, turn down to a simmer and allow to bubble gently for a further 15 until the sauce has thickened.

Notes

If you are freezing allow to cool first. Tip: If you put the sauce into zip lock freezer bags and lay them flat, they take up a lot less space in the freezer.
