Ingredients serves: appx. 10

  • Appx. 15(appx. 3 kg) tomatoes Peel and take out the seeds.
    If it's used Japanese tomatoes, the sauce might be watery sometimes. So preferably use a can of whole tomatoes. Then don't forget to remove their seeds. "RYOKUKEN TOMATO" is perfect for cooking, but it's too expensive. When you make tomato sauce from fresh tomatoes except in the summer, I recommend "RYOKUKEN TOMATO". There is the value of good taste. Let's try once.
  • 3 medium onions
  • 3-5 pieces of garlic
  • Olive oil (Preferably extra virgin olive oil)
  • Fresh basil (substitute: dried basil)
  • Salt, black pepper
