Cooking with Keiran

So mama bear is still sick with a fever, which means I am still head chef in this house. Today I decided to make spaghetti with tomato sauce. Now as a normal and rather lazy college student, when I make spaghetti and tomato sauce I usually just plop a spoonful of Classico on top of my pasta and call in a night. But I've decided to be more adventurous with my cooking these last few days and have been making everything by scratch. (WARNING: makes a lot of tomato sauce.) Here is my recipe for the tomato sauce:

Ingredients
-olive oil
-1 small can of tomato paste
-1 large can of crushed tomatoes
-1 large can of whole peeled tomatoes
-1 white onion
-1 spoonful of balsamic vinegar
-1 spoonful of brown sugar
-salt
-pepper
-basil
-creme freche (optional)

Instructions (before all other things, put on some music. I, personally, chose a mixture of Best Coast and Florence & the Machine.)
1. finely chop the whole onion
2. sautee onion in olive oil in a medium/large sauce pan until it gets golden brown
3. add the cans of crushed tomatoes/whole peeled tomatoes/tomato paste and let simmer for a few minutes
4. add a spoonful of balsamic vinegar and stir
5. add a spoonful of brown sugar and stir
6. add your basil, salt, pepper and any other herbs you may want, let simmer
7. (optional) if you like your sauce to be on the creamy side, add a few spoonfuls of creme freche to the pot so that the mixture turns slightly pink
8. taste and make sure it's delicious
9. ENJOY!!!!!
