28 oz can tomatoes (Crushed or whole peeled san marzano style. The quality of this determines the quality of your sauce)

5 tbsp butter

1 onion, halved and peeled

Instructions

Add all the ingredients to a wide pot and bring to a simmer. If you’re choosing to add any dried herbs, do it at the beginning. Once the butter has melted fully, simmer for 45 mins.
