Default Marinara Sauce

Here's a good basic marinara recipe from the KitchenAid cookbook.

Marinara Sauce

1 28oz can Italian tomatoes*
1 6oz can tomato paste
4 Tbsp fresh chopped flat leaf (Italian) parsley
1 clove garlic
1 tsp dried oregano
1 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper
6 Tbsp olive oil
2/3 cup diced onion
1/2 cup dry white wine, optional

Place tomatoes with juice, tomato paste, parsley,
garlic, oregano, salt and pepper in a blender or
food precessor container. Process until smooth.
Heat olive oil in a 12 inch skillet over medium heat.
Add onions and saute 2 minutes.
Add tomato mixture and wine.
Reduce heat and simmer 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.

*Two pounds of fresh tomatoes may be substituted for
canned tomatoes. Cut fresh tomatoes into quarters and
simmer 1 1/2 hours. Proceed as if using canned tomatoes.

Personal note: Try adding fresh basil. Also, try adding
some shredded carrot to the skillet when sauteing the onion.
Some dried chili flakes gives it a bit of zing.
