I sautee garlic and onion in olive oil. Sometimes i add red pepper flakes. I let those become translucent. If I am using meat I brown it first before the onion and garlic and use the same pan for flavor. Then i add my tomatos and paste and let simmer for about 2 hrs.

Pretty much the same except I will add fresh basil, salt, pepper, and sometimes a teeny tiny bit of sugar.

I use San Marzanno tomatoes. I heat extra virgin olive oil in a pot with crushed garlic, minced onion and red pepper flakes. Add the tomatoes and a few fresh sprigs of basil and that's it. Quick, easy marinara sauce.

Re: To those who make their own sauce....

ugh...down in the South it's so hard to find good stuff.

I try to use Tutarosso crushed and then Contadina tomato sacuce and paste and I tend to buy the ones that have the italian seasonings or roasted garlic in them to add flavor.

RECIPE (MIL shared):
2 large cans crushed
2 small cans sauce
2 small cans paste
sauteed garlic (touch of olive oil)
sausage, browned (I use mild or sweet, 4 or 6 to a batch)
sprinkle enough basil and oregano to cover top of pot and stir in.
dash of sugar to cut the acidity.

That's it. She does hers on the stove for a few hours (with meatballs too). I put mine in the slow cooker on low for a few hours.
