Spaghetti with tomato sauce


Ingredients

1lb Spaghetti
6 Tomatoes
4 garlic cloves
¼ cup chopped onion
1 tsp dried basil
1 tsp dried oregano
1 tsp pepper powder
2 tsp Crushed red chili flakes
2 tbsp butter
2 tsp sugar
2 tbsp olive oil
Salt

Directions

Blanch and puree three tomatoes along with garlic and onion. Chop the remaining tomatoes. Heat olive oil in a pan and add both the puree and chopped tomatoes in a pan. When it starts to boil add all the remaining ingredients and simmer for 20-30mins.Cook the spaghetti with enough water and salt. Once it is cooked switch off the flame and add cold water. Strain it and serve with sauce.

Note :
The quantity of sugar totally depends on the sourness of tomatoes.
Adjust the spice according to your taste.
You can also puree all the tomatoes instead of chopping.
Personally I like to serve with sour cream.
