Spaghetti Sauce Using Fresh Tomatoes

Ingredients:
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 large onion, diced
8-10 garlic cloves, diced
6 pounds fresh roma tomatoes, chopped
1 6 oz can tomato paste (optional)
1 tablespoon sugar
1 tablespoon dried oregano
1 tablespoon dried basil
2 teaspoons salt
½-1 teaspoon red pepper flakes

Instructions:
In a large stock pot, saute onion and garlic in olive oil until onions are translucent.
Add tomatoes and cook over medium low heat until tomatoes are soft stirring occasionally. About 30 minutes.
Use an immersion blender to blend sauce to consistency desired. Slightly chunky or completely smooth.
Add tomato paste if needed, sugar, oregano, basil, salt, and red pepper flakes.
Reduce heat to low and simmer for 1-2 hours. The longer sauce simmers, the thicker it will become.
Stir sauce occasionally to prevent sticking/burning.
Serve with your favorite pasta.
