A simple tomato sauce made from fruity, fresh tomatoes and a few other ingredients is prepared in no time and tastes simply delicious. Pasta with tomato sauce is probably one of the simplest yet most popular German dishes.

Both ingredients of the classic dish last for a long time in the kitchen cupboard and can therefore always be bought in stock. For about four servings of tomato sauce you will need: 400 g tomatoes (large) 1 onion 1 to 2 garlic cloves (depending on taste) Some olive oil Some water Italian herbs such as oregano and basil (dried) pinch of sugar salt and pepper Optionally some sour cream or cooking cream.
