We’ve never had sauce (gravy) from a jar.
1 can tomatoes (either crushed or pealed (I like peeled)
1 can dice tomatoes
1 can tomato paste
Olive oil
Garlic
Basil
If you want meat sauce - start with equal parts veal/beef/pork - cook them
Remove meat
Crush 1 or 2 cloves garlic, sauté in olive oil (about 2 to 3 minutes)
Add the 3 cans of tomatoes to the pan
Add some Italian seasoning
Let that cook down for about 30 minutes
Add meat back into the red sauce.
Add basil to the end.
If you want thinner sauce, add some of the water from cooking the pasta
I sometimes add diced onions with the garlic.
I dont know the ounces
But I use the small can of tomato paste
The normal size can (like a soup can) of the diced tomaotes and
The next size up of the tomatoes
