Ingredients:

2 lbs fresh tomatoes (or 28 oz can whole tomatoes with juice)
4 garlic cloves, minced
1 small onion, finely chopped
1 tbsp dried basil (you can also use oregano instead) or 1 bunch fresh
2 tbsp oil
salt and pepper to taste

Directions

If using fresh tomatoes, peel them.

Chop the tomatoes.

Heat the oil in a non-stick frying pan over medium-high heat.  Add the onions and cook, stirring periodically, for 5 minutes.

Add the chopped tomatoes and their juice.  Stir, reduce heat to low, cover and simmer for 15 minutes.

Add garlic and basil.  Stir, cover and simmer for 5 more minutes.  Add salt and pepper to taste.

If the sauce is too chunky, you can process it in the food processor.
