Ingredients
- ¾ cup (12 tablespoons) tomato paste , equivalent to 1 x 5½ to 6oz can (use tomato puree in the UK)
- 1¾ cups (420 mls) crushed tomatoes , or tomato sauce (use passata in the UK)
- 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning , (mixed herbs in the UK)
- 1 tablespoon dried basil
- 1 tablespoon dried oregano
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
- 2 teaspoons sugar , optional but recommended
- OPTIONAL ¼ teaspoon chili flakes , omit or add more or less to suit your tastes
INSTRUCTIONS
- Add all of the ingredients to a mixing bowl. Stir or whisk together really well to combine into a thick sauce. You will need to mash up the tomato paste with the spoon or whisk when you start off so it breaks up and mixes in.
- Give it a quick taste to check the seasoning and add more salt and pepper as necessary. It will taste very concentrated but don't worry as once it is spread on the pizza and cooks it will be perfect.
- Transfer to airtight containers and refrigerate for up to 10 days or freeze for up to 3 months.
NOTES
This recipe makes a total of 2¾ cups (660ml) of pizza sauce. Enough for about 5 medium pizzas.
