Time 5m

Number Of Ingredients 6

14 oz (400g) can of European tomatoes (preferably pomodoro pelato S.Marzano dell'Agro Sarnese-Nocerino D.O.P) THIS IS THE MOST IMPORTANT INGREDIENT-do not use inferior quality tomatoes
3 Tbsp good quality extra virgin olive oil
1/2 tsp sea salt
a few pinches of dried oregano
2 or 3 leaves of fresh Italian basil, torn into small pieces
(optional: a clove of fresh garlic, minced) my Italian family uses garlic, but it's only used on one type of pizza in Naples

Steps:

  • Pour the can of tomatoes into a bowl. If it is pomodorini or whole tomatoes, crush them with your hands, or you can roughly cut them with kitchen shears.
  • Add the rest of the ingredients and mix well. Taste for salt and add if needed. (Don't add a lot of sauce to the pizza dough; you don't want to drown it.)
