Sugo Rosso - Red Sauce

Earlier, for me pasta sauce is always a quick sauce with tomatoes but later i learned many and now i make excellent pasta sauces. Pasta, this word itself makes my kids happy, they can have pastas everyday and they never get bored of pastas. However we have pastas atleast twice or thrice a week. My today's recipe goes for Sugo Rosso, this sauce is called Red sauce which is prepared simply with fresh tomatoes and flavored with basil leaves,garlic cloves. This sauce is very quick to prepare, easy to dish out and delicious to enjoy with pastas.

Needless to say that this beautiful, very catchy red sauce is vegan and an excellent sauce for anyone as this sauce goes for simple ingredients.Avoid canned tomatoes and stick with redish plum tomatoes for making this red sauce. Fresh tomatoes cooked along with garlic cloves makes this gorgeous tomatoes loaded sauce, am running my first week of blogging marathon with pastas in different sauce.
