Making your own pizza sauce is just so easy! It tastes fresher, nicer and way tastier than shop bought tomato sauce and if you’re making homemade pizzas then homemade pizza sauce is definitely the way to go. 

You’ll only need a handful of ingredients and just a few minutes hands-on cooking time, then you can leave it to bubble away nicely.

How to make pizza sauce

Super simple homemade pizza sauce

Ingredients

  • sea salt and black pepper
  • small handful of basil - roughly chopped (optional)

Instructions

  1. Add the olive oil to a saucepan over a low heat.
  2. Tip in the garlic and sauté for a minute.
  3. Add the tinned tomatoes and dried oregano - season to taste with salt and black pepper.
  4. Bring the sauce to the boil then reduce to a simmer and cook with the lid off for around 30-40 minutes or until the sauce has thickened and reduced.
  5. Remove from the heat and stir in the chopped basil.
