1 medium onion chopped
3 garlic cloves peeled and chopped
28 ounces crushed tomatoes

12 ounces water use empty tomato paste can, or use red wine

½ teaspoon ground black pepper
¼ teaspoon dried red pepper flakes
1 teaspoon sugar optional

Instructions
Cook chopped onions and garlic in olive oil until soft over medium heat
Stir in crushed tomatoes and tomato paste
Stir in water (use empty tomato paste can)
Add dried basil, sea salt, pepper and pepper flakes. Add a teaspoon or more of sugar to taste if sauce seems too acidic.
Reduce heat to simmer, cover and cook on low for 1 to 1/12 hours, stirring occasionally to avoid burning. Can add more water to thin sauce if necessary, and add fresh parsley before serving, optional.

Can use garlic powder instead of chopped, onion flakes instead of chopped, and Italian seasoning, dried parsley or oregano instead of or in addition to dried basil.
If adding meatballs, add to sauce before simmering.
