2. Add the minced garlic and grated carrot, cooking until softened.
3. Stir in the crushed tomatoes and bring to a simmer.
4. Add the chopped basil, and if using, the sugar, to enhance the sauce’s natural sweetness.
5. Reduce the heat and let the sauce simmer for about 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
6. Season with salt and pepper.
7. This sauce pairs beautifully with pasta, as a pizza sauce, or spooned over fresh mozzarella for a simple Caprese salad.
