Quick Homemade Italian Tomato Sauce

1. Sauté to Perfection:

Heat olive oil in a medium sauce pot over medium-high heat.

Add carrots, onions, salt, and pepper, sautéing until the onions wear a translucent look and carrots tenderize.

Introduce garlic and allow it to brown lightly, which should take about 2 minutes.

2. Tomato Infusion:

Crank up the heat to high and cascade the crushed tomatoes into the pan.

Basil joins next, weaving into the mixture.

Let it simmer, stirring periodically.

3. Final Touches:

Mix in sugar and dial down the heat, letting it simmer for 5-7 minutes until it achieves a thickened consistency.

Invite parsley to the party and let it simmer for an additional 5 minutes.

Taste and tweak the salt as per your preference before removing it from the heat.
