Once you've got it down pat, here's the full recipe: BASIC TOMATO SAUCE 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil 1 Spanish onion, cut into 1/4-inch dice 4 cloves garlic, thinly sliced 1/2 medium carrot, finely shredded 3 tablespoons chopped fresh thyme, optional* Two 28-ounce cans whole tomatoes Salt 1.

Add the thyme and carrot and cook until the carrot is quite soft, about 5 minutes. 2. Add the tomatoes, with their juice, and bring to a boil, stirring often. Lower the heat and simmer until as thick as hot cereal, about 30 minutes. Season with salt.
