| 2 cups | Diced or peeled tomatoes; chopped (or "basic" sauce) |
| 1 medium | Onion; finely shredded |
| 1 small | Apple; finely chopped or sliced |
| 2 tablespoons | Extra virgin olive oil |
| 1 | Bay leaf |
| 1 pinch | Salt |
| 1 pinch | Black pepper |
(in Italy it's usually served with small pasta, such as bowties or corkscrews)
Place oil, onion, apple and bay leaf in a saucepan. Cover and simmer on low heat until apple and onion are dissolved (it takes 45 to 60 minutes). Add tomatoes and salt, and simmer for another half hour. Add pepper after removing the pan from the heat.
