A good pizza sauce is essential for a good result when you bake pizza. And why not make your own, when it is this easy.
This pizza sauce is lightly seasoned and tastes wonderful, – and it is also excellent spooned over a calzone bolognese.
It takes no time to make, – and keeps well in the fridge for a few days. Leftovers freeze well, – but be aware that the sauce can turn a little watery after freezing. If so, simply bring it to the boil in a saucepan and let it bubble for 5 minutes, – and it is as good as new.

- 1 shallot, finely chopped (or 1/2 small onion)

Method
- Heat the oil in a small saucepan and sweat the shallot and garlic for a couple of minutes over a medium heat, – without letting them colour.
- Add the tomato purée and the dried herbs and cook through for a further 2-3 minutes.
- Pour in the polpa or chopped tomatoes, season with salt and pepper and let the pizza sauce simmer gently for at least 10 minutes, – ideally half an hour or so. On my hob that is setting 4 out of 9.I prefer my pizza sauce smooth, so if I only have chopped or whole tinned tomatoes, I like to blend them before adding them to the sauce.
- Season the pizza sauce to taste with salt and pepper, and let it cool slightly before spreading it on the pizzas, – or refrigerate it until needed.
