How to Make Marinara Sauce:

  1. To prepare this sauce, first peel the tomatoes after washing them, then grate them finely, or you can puree them in a food processor or blender.

  2. Grate the onion and garlic finely after peeling them.

  3. Next, heat a pan over low heat and add some olive oil or butter. Once hot, add the onions and sauté until soft and translucent. Then, add the garlic and sauté until golden brown.

  4. At this stage, create a space in the middle of the pan and add the tomato paste. Sauté it for a few minutes to reduce its raw taste and enhance its color.

  5. Then, add the pureed tomatoes, along with thyme, salt, and pepper. Sauté everything until the tomato water evaporates and the sauce thickens to your desired consistency.

  6. Add lemon juice, and finally, stir in the chopped parsley and basil. Continue stirring until the sauce reaches the desired thickness.
