Ingredients

4-5 servings
  • two 28-ounce cans San Marzano tomatoes (whole or crushed will work – I usually use whole tomatoes, and we use the DeLallo brand!)
  • 1 stick (8 tablespoons) salted butter
  • 1 yellow onion, peel removed and cut into 4 chunks
  • 3–4 cloves smashed garlic (optional)
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons salt

Preparation

Chef’s notes

To make this in the Instant Pot:
Everything goes in the pot, cook for 20 minutes, and release pressure. Remove onion chunks and blend! The advantage of this method is that you don’t have to babysit it – you can just leave it alone and it won’t burn. Very hands-off. That said, I feel like the flavor of the stovetop version is just slightly sweeter and richer because you get a bit more caramelization, but both methods are amazing.
