How to Prepare 20-Minute Homestyle Marinara [Vegan]

  1. Heat the oil and add in the cumin, black pepper and the garlic and cook for about 30 seconds.
  2. Add in the onion and cook for about 4 to 5 minutes, until the onion softens and begins to turn pale golden.
  3. Add in the tomatoes, salt and sugar and cook for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally until the tomatoes soften and begin to thicken. When stirring, break down the tomatoes with a back of a spoon.
  4. Add in the herbs and the red pepper flakes and lower the heat and simmer for another 5 minutes until the mixture is much thicker and relatively thick.
  5. You can serve with pasta or cool slightly and blend until smooth and then serve.
