  • Sauté the vegetables in the olive oil for about 10 minutes, until they lose their water content.
  • Add tomato purée (passata di pomodoro) and remaining 4 cloves of garlic and let it simmer for 15 minutes in a low heat. The longer you cook, the better it gets. But for a fast meal it’s totally OK to simmer just for 15 minutes. Add salt, pepper, basil and oregano to taste.
