Homemade Pasta Sauce Recipe with tomato - How to make pasta sauce at home:


Homemade pasta sauce recipe I have shared here is an easy and quick pasta sauce recipe and can be made from fresh tomatoes at home. To my surprise, the taste was very good and better than even the store bought pasta sauces. My hubby who does not prefer pasta recipes loved this pasta. Even when I buy Maggi Pasta, I buy it for me alone since both my hubby and kid do not eat it. But they both love the pasta made with this home made tomato pasta sauce. 


About the taste of homemade tomato Italian pasta sauce: 

It is a sweet, spicy and tangy as well. You can adjust the quantity of dry red chillies according to your taste. You can omit adding the red chillies or reduce the quantity when you prepare the sauce for kids. You can also adjust the quantity of sugar. You can add more number of red chillies for spicy pasta lovers. 

Storage suggestion:

You can store it in fridge and use it up to a week. I always prefer to consume it within 2 days since the flavor tends to reduce if we store any food item for a long time.

Pasta Sauce



Ingredients you should not miss to get a nice flavor:

Tomato is the main ingredient. But olive oil, oregano and garlic flakes takes the taste of the pasta sauce many steps ahead. In worst case, Olive oil can be substituted with any edible oil and oregano can be replaced with any dried herbs or basil leaves. No substitution for garlic flakes.
