Tips

  • For the homemade sauce, use high-quality tomatoes, ideally those that are around 99% tomatoes, like Mutti brand.
  • You can adjust the amount of chili flakes to make the sauce as spicy as you like; a teaspoon makes it quite spicy.
  • After simmering, remove the onion, garlic, and dried chili from the homemade sauce.
  • The homemade sauce is a vegan and healthier spin on the Marcella Hazan recipe, using olive oil instead of butter.
