Ingridents used for this sauce
Tomato: In this pizza sauce we are using fresh ripe tomatoes. The main ingredient of this sauce. Here we used two types of Tomato, peeled tomatoes, and tomato sauce. You can also use canned tomatoes and store-bought tomato paste for this.
But I want this recipe to be simple and quick. That’s why I used chopped tomatoes and sauce, nothing else. Seriously it tastes delicious.
Basil leaves: Basil is very important for any pizza sauce. It gives the aroma and authentic Italian taste to the sauce. The Italian basil is a little bit bigger in size but you can use Indian basil leaves in the place of the Italian one. I used this and it gives the same flavor.
Oil : Use olive oil for this recipe but you can also use vegetable oil or butter.
Garlic: Garlic is also the most important ingredient of pizza sauce. Do not forget to add fresh garlic. You can add more garlic into the sauce if you like garlic flavor.
Oregano and red chili flacks: Orengo is also an Italian herb that gives the butter and pungent flavor to the sauce and chili flacks give the spicy touch.
Some other ingredients: I use a small chopped onion because I love the onion flavor. And a bit of vinegar or soya sauce. It provides the tarty flavor. Use a bit of sugar for sweetness.
Agar agar wonder gel : This is the new and wonderful product from meron agaragar. It gives a nice spreadable consistency to the sauce.
