5) Now add chopped tomatoes n stir it. Add tomato puree n stir it again.
6) Now add salt n sugar. cover it n let it boil for 15 mins or until sauce gets little thicker.( check on it in middle, dnt burn it )
7) Add oregano, basil,pepper n cover it for 10 mins. If still there is water in your sauce cover it n cook for another 5-10 mins. Make sure that u dnt burn the sauce and also not to make it too thick.Taste it n if u want to add salt or herbs go ahead n do it.
