This sauce is part of this week’s trilogy. We started with a mushroom risotto, and I mentioned we’d be using the leftovers to make arancini. I love dipping mine into a proper marinara — and this is that sauce.

🛒 Ingredients:
½ white onion, finely diced
2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
Olive oil
1 tin quality tomatoes (I used Mutti – use the best your budget allows)
Pinch of salt
Pinch of sugar
Dried herbs (I used my Italian mix: oregano, rosemary, thyme, peperonata, garlic powder)
Small bunch fresh basil (stalks included)

👨‍🍳 Method:

Gently sauté the finely diced onion in olive oil over medium heat until softened.

Add the chopped garlic and cook for about 1 minute.

Pour in the tomatoes.

Add a pinch of salt and sugar.

Stir in your dried herbs and the fresh basil (stalks included).

Place a lid on slightly ajar and simmer for around 10 minutes until thickened and rich.

That’s it — simple ingredients, treated properly.

🍝 What This Sauce Works With:
Perfect for dipping arancini
Tossed through pasta
Served with calamari or seafood
As a base for pizza
Spooned over chicken or meatballs

It’s one of the most versatile sauces you can have in your repertoire.
