Create a rich and flavorful homemade pizza sauce using canned tomato sauce, tomato paste, fresh vegetables, herbs, and cheese.
Ingredients:
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 0.5 cup chopped onion
  • 0.25 cup finely chopped celery
  • 0.5 teaspoon minced garlic
  • 1 (6 ounce) can tomato paste
  • 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 teaspoon fennel seeds, ground
  • 1 teaspoon dried basil
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 0.5 teaspoon salt
  • 0.5 teaspoon white sugar
  • 1 large bay leaf
Instructions:
  • In a large skillet over medium heat, combine butter and olive oil until melted. Sauté onion, celery, and garlic in the mixture until the onion is soft and translucent, about 5 to 7 minutes.
  • Combine tomato sauce and tomato paste with the onion mixture until creamy. Mix in Parmesan cheese, fennel seeds, basil, oregano, salt, sugar, pepper, and a bay leaf. Bring the sauce to a gentle simmer and let it cook for 1 hour. Don't forget to remove and discard the bay leaf before serving.
