Remove from the oven and let the crisps cool completely.

Peel and dice 1 pound (450g) of fresh tomatoes.

In a saucepan, heat 1 tablespoon (14g) of olive oil over medium-low heat.

Add 1 clove of minced garlic and cook for a few seconds until fragrant.

Add the diced tomatoes to the saucepan.

Stir in 1 teaspoon (1g) of dry oregano, 1 bay leaf, and 1/2 teaspoon (3g) of sugar.

Add red pepper flakes if desired, along with freshly ground black pepper and salt to taste.

Simmer the sauce for about 20-25 minutes until thickened.
