Tomato-Cream Sauce for Pasta

Hey everyone,

We made a tomato-cream sauce to go over our ravioli. I actually used fresh tomato from Angela and Andrea's garden and added a 1/4 teaspoon of Italian Seasoning since it calls for Italian-style tomatoes.

We liked it a lot... Here's where I found it:

Ingredients

* 2 tablespoons olive oil
* 1 onion, diced
* 1 clove garlic, minced
* 1 (14.5 ounce) can Italian-style diced tomatoes, undrained
* 1 tablespoon dried basil leaves
* 3/4 teaspoon white sugar
* 1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
* 1/4 teaspoon salt
* 1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper
* 1/2 cup heavy cream
* 1 tablespoon butter

Directions

1. In a saucepan, saute onion and garlic in olive oil over medium heat. Make sure it doesn't burn. Add tomatoes, basil, sugar, oregano, salt and pepper. Bring to boil and continue to boil 5 minutes or until most of the liquid evaporates. Remove from heat; stir in whipping cream and butter. Reduce heat and simmer 5 more minutes.
