How to Make Easy Italian Ketchup
- In a small saucepan, combine the ketchup, basil, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika.
- Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer over low heat. Stir occasionally for 2 minutes to blend the flavors.
- Add the oregano and red pepper flakes (if using). Cook for another 30 seconds, stirring constantly.
- Taste and adjust seasonings: If the oregano flavor is subtle, add another 1/4 teaspoon of oregano and paprika. Cook for an additional 30 seconds.
- If the ketchup is too thick, add 1 tablespoon of water at a time until you reach your desired consistency.
- Remove from heat and let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy with your favorite fries or potato wedges!
