1/2 Red onion
Handful of shredded fresh Basil
5 Roma Tomatos (riper the better)
2 gloves garlic
2 Tbs Olive oil
Liberal application of salt and pepper

I think that's it...

Then simply cooked down until a chunky thick sauce. For a traditional syle (see Pizza From Scratch #3) no additional topping needed. Or puree a little for a smoother fishish under toppings of your choice.

Flew by the seat of my pants making this and the result may be interesting. It can be difficult to determine the "right" amount of salt to add as it's needed to bring out the tomato flavour but no-one likes salty food either.
What do you think?
