Simple Tomato Sauce

I do not recommend this sauce for pasta but it is great on pizzas and parmgiano dishes! That being said, it is OK on pasta with the above eggplant dish since it is not the focus of the meal.

Simple Tomato Sauce

Large can crushed tomatoes
1 clove garlic, diced
olive oil
glug of good red wine
fresh basil

In a heavy saucepan, heat up garlic in olive oil. Before garlic browns, add wine to deglaze pan. After most of the alcohol has burned off, add tomatoes and basil. Bring to a boil and then turn low to simmer for approx. 20-30 minutes. You can store extra in freezer for next time :)
