Simple Marinara Sauce

This basic and easy sauce is from Mario Batali.  It can be made quickly, and is very versatile.

Ingredients:
¼ C olive oil
1 onion, diced
4 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
3 TBS fresh thyme
½ medium carrot, finely shredded
2 28 oz. cans Cento San Marzano Italian tomatoes

Instructions:
Sauté onion and garlic in olive oil until soft, 8-10 minutes. Add thyme and carrot, cook until carrot is soft, about 5 minutes. Break up tomatoes. Add tomatoes and juice, bring to boil, stirring often. Lower heat and simmer until it thickens. Salt to taste.
