Notes

  • I used the regular tomato sauce we buy which is slightly sweet and spicy.
  • Adjust spices according to the sauce you use.
  • You can even saute garlic and add it to the sauce.
  • This keeps well for about a week in fridge.
  • You can add finely chopped onion too but I prefer adding it fresh while adding to pizza / pasta. You can reduce garlic if you want a mild flavour.
  • Spices and seasoning are your choice, you can alter as per your liking.
  • This pizza sauce can be made just before making pizza too as its very quick and easy to make. I had corn in hand so boiled and added it.
  • You can use any vegetable of your choice.
