- 4 Tbs Unsalted butter
- 1 Large onion
- 2 Garlic cloves
- 0.5 tsp Kosher salt
- 30 g Flour
- 2 Cans Napolina chopped tomatoes
- 1 Tbs Tomato purée
- 1 Tbs Orange juice
- 2 Bay leaves
- Ground nutmeg

Method

Melt the butter in large pot over medium heat. Add the onions, garlic, and 1/2 teaspoon salt, and cook, stirring frequently, until the onions have softened, about 8 minutes.

Add the flour and cook until it no longer appears dry. Remove from the heat.

Pour the crushed tomatoes into a blender. Add the sautéed onions and garlic and purée until smooth. Return the purée to the pot.

5

Remove the bay leaves and season with additional salt and freshly grated nutmeg as desired.
