Alex's Napoli Sauce

Yesterday we took the girls on the long drive to and from their grandparent's house and eventually arrived home late and hungry. This Napoli sauce is a favourite of Alex's to make and we had it last night with spaghetti and a sprinkling of Parmesan cheese - a perfectly simple meal to end the day.
We often have it on home-made pizza as well and you can prepare it ahead and keep it in the fridge for a few days.

Enjoy!
