Zubereitung von Authentic Italian Marinara Sauce
- In a large pan over medium heat, sauté minced garlic and chopped onion in olive oil until translucent (about 5 minutes).
- Add crushed tomatoes to the pan.
- Sprinkle in black pepper and add bay leaves.
- Bring the sauce to a simmer and cook for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally, to reduce and intensify the flavors.
