4 servings
- 3 tbsp olive oil
- 3 cloves garlic, peeled and lightly smashed
- ¼ tsp red pepper flakes
- 1 can (28 oz) whole peeled tomatoes, crushed by hand
- ½ tsp sugar
Chef's tipUse the same amount. Coconut sugar has a mild caramel flavor, and baked goods come out a little darker and slightly less sweet. - ½ tsp dried oregano
- 3 sprigs fresh basil, plus more for serving
- ½ tsp kosher salt, plus more to taste
- ¼ tsp black pepper
Instructions
- 1
Combine the olive oil and smashed garlic cloves in a medium saucepan over medium-low heat. Cook, turning the garlic occasionally, until the cloves are golden and fragrant, about 6–8 minutes. Remove and discard the garlic cloves using a slotted spoon or fine-mesh strainer, leaving the infused oil in the pan.

Add the red pepper flakes to the infused oil and cook for 30 seconds, until fragrant.
