Pizza Sauce

Okay so, I go to uni and have worked at a pizza takeaway place for four years. Not to brag, but they are the best pizzas i have tasted in my entire life... no joke. My boss always says that toppings will always taste the same so therefore what makes a good pizza is the base and the sauce, of course she won't tell me the recipes but i have secretly watched her to try and figure it out. I have tested so many flippen ways to get a good sauce trying tomato paste, chopped tomatoes, tomato puree and a bit of it all to get a good one.

Pizza Sauce

410g tin tomato puree
4 cloves of garlic, crushed
1 tbsp mixed herbs
3 tbsp olive oil
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp sugar
2 tbsp tomato paste

Over a medium heat, in a small pot heat the olive oil and add the garlic (be careful not to burn the garlic or else it will taste like poo).

Add all the rest of the ingredients and simmer for 5 minutes or so, it will splash everywhere so watch out.

Done. Simple but good. Seriously try it and you WILL taste the difference and have an amazing pizza.
