A Bigga Pizza Pie
Filed in archive Recipes by Jennifer on August 18, 2007

I make pizza at least once a month. We like a nice, garlicky tomato sauce and not too much cheese. My favorite pizza sauce requires just six ingredients.
2 tablespoons olive oil
3 cloves garlic, smashed, peeled and left whole
1- 14 oz. can whole, peeled Italian tomatoes
1 teaspoon dried oregano
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon sugar
Warm the whole cloves of garlic in the olive oil until they begin to turn a nice, golden color.
Pour the tomatoes into a bowl and crush them into little bits using clean hands then add to the cooked garlic and olive oil.
Add the oregano, salt and sugar, give it a good stir and simmer, uncovered, on low heat for about 30 minutes until it has thickened a bit.

Pre-heat the oven to 450 degrees.
Stretch the dough thinly to fit either a round pizza pan, a pizza stone or a baking sheet.
Spread the sauce over the dough.
Cut the round mozzarella balls into 1/2 inch slices and lay them on the sauce. They don't have to completely cover the sauce.
Bake for 17-20 minutes, until crust is crispy and cheese is bubbly.
