π Recipe adapted from RecipeNLG-Full
Heat the oil in a large heavy pot over medium-low heat.
Add garlic and cook until it colors slightly but does not burn, 3 to 4 minutes.
Watch the garlic carefully as it cooks, to be sure it does not burn.
Once garlic starts to color, it cooks very fast. Remove from heat and carefully stir in the tomatoes and wine. Return the pot to medium heat.
Stir in the parsley, basil, oregano, salt, pepper and sugar.
Simmer uncovered, stirring occasionally, for 30 minutes.
Serve immediately or cool and store, covered, in the refrigerator for up to 2 days or freeze the sauce for later use.
