Ingredients

  • Olive Oil– 2 tablespoons.
  • Yellow or Sweet Onion- 1 chopped.
  • Garlic- 2 cloves minced.
  • Tomatoes- 1 28 ounce can crushed or diced depending on your preference.
  • Wine see above for suggestions- ½ cup.
  • Seasonings- salt pepper, basil, etc to taste. Seasonings really have to do with your preferences and the other ingredients that you add to your sauce. Most importantly, the wine that you decide to add.

Instructions

  • In a large saucepan on medium heat, saute your onion until tender. This should take just a few minutes. Then stir in the garlic and continue cooking until the garlic is soft. This should take only about a minute or two.
  • Next, turn up the heat slightly and add the wine to the skillet. You will need to stir the mixture continuoulsy in order to preven burning the ingredinets and sticking to the skillet. The wine should mostly burnt off when this step is done.
  • Add the remaining ingredients to the skillet, turn down the heat to low and allow the sauce to simmer. Stir your sauce occasionally as well.
  • Your sauce should be done in 15- 20 minutes, giving you the perfect opportunity to make your pasta :).

Recipe Notes

I would stay away from the fortified or port wines as they may be a bit too much for this recipe.
For a red wine, a Cabernet or Chianti should work well.
From the white wines, a Pinot Grigio or Sauvignon Blanc are good choices.
