  • 1 and 1/2 tsp garlic granules
  • 1 tsp onion granules
  • 1/2 marjoram
  • 1/2 smoked paprika
  • 1/2 mixed herbs
  • 1 cup passata
  • 1/2 tsp sugar (to remove any bitterness from the tomatoes)
  • 1 small bay leaf
  • salt and pepper (to tate)
Instructions
  1. 1
    fry garlic

    Fry the mined garlic cloves in olive oil for 30-60 seconds

    Tomato puree and herbs

    add tomato puree and all herbs and cook out for a few mins.

  3. 3
    Add final ingredients

    Add passata and bay leaf and simmer for 10 mins

  4. 4
    final adjustments

    Feel free to add or remove any of herbs in the recipe. It's your pizza, make it how you like it.

Note

This pizza sauce freezes well. I use a large ice cube tray and freeze in 2 tbsp batches.
