Pizza sauce recipe

Method

1 Fry the onion over a low heat in the oil until softened. Add the garlic and cook for 1min. Add the tomato purée and cook for 1min. Add the plum tomatoes, bay leaf, dried oregano and sugar.
2 Cook gently for 1hr, crushing the tomatoes with the back of a wooden spoon, until the sauce is thick and pulpy. Remove the bay leaf and cool. Use the sauce as required. Makes enough for two large pizzas (you can freeze the sauce in batches for up to three months).
