Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 6 servings

  • ¼ cup chopped celery

  • ¼ cup chopped green bell pepper

  • ¼ cup chopped red bell pepper

  • ¼ cup chopped yellow bell pepper

  • ¼ cup chopped carrot

  • 2 tablespoons basil, or to taste

  • 2 tablespoons oregano, or to taste

  • ¼ teaspoon thyme, or to taste

  • 1 tablespoon salt, or to taste

  • 1 tablespoon ground black pepper, or to taste

  • 3 tablespoons olive oil

  • ¼ cup chopped white onion

  • 4 cloves garlic, minced

  • 20 ripe tomatoes - peeled, seeded, and chopped

  • ½ cup red wine, divided

  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch

Directions

  1. Mix celery, green bell pepper, red bell pepper, yellow bell pepper, carrot, basil, oregano, thyme, salt, and black pepper together in a bowl until the vegetables are evenly coated in seasonings.

  2. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-low heat. Cook and stir onion and garlic in hot oil until onion is soft and garlic is light golden brown, 5 to 10 minutes. Add vegetable mixture to the skillet; cook and stir until hot, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove skillet from heat.

  3. Combine tomatoes and 1/4 cup red wine in a large pot over low heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the tomatoes begin to soften, 15 to 20 minutes.

  4. Pour tomato mixture into a blender with remaining 1/4 cup red wine and cornstarch to no more than half full. Cover and hold lid down; pulse a few times before leaving on to blend. Puree in batches until smooth.

  5. Return blended tomatoes to pot over medium-low heat. Stir vegetable mixture through tomato sauce; bring to a simmer and cook until thick, about 1 hour.
