Ingredients

1x
  • 60ml infused olive oil
  • 400g canned crushed tomatoes
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 1 tsp dried basil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Pinch of sugar (optional, to cut acidity)

How to Make It

  1. 1Heat infused olive oil in a saucepan over medium-low heat. Do not let it smoke.
  2. 2Add garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
  3. 3Add crushed tomatoes, oregano, basil, salt, and pepper.
  4. 4Simmer on low for 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  5. 5Taste and adjust seasoning. Add a pinch of sugar if too acidic.
  6. 6Divide evenly across 4 pasta servings.

Pro Tips

  • Low heat is essential — high heat degrades active compounds.
  • Add the oil at the start so it simmers into the sauce rather than floating on top.
  • Make a larger batch of plain sauce, then add the infused oil portioned across servings.

Serving Ideas

Toss with your favorite pasta. Divide into exactly 4 equal portions for consistent dosing. Top with parmesan.
