Notes
Adjust Consistency: If you prefer a thicker sauce, use slightly less water. For a thinner, more spreadable sauce, add a bit more water until it reaches your desired consistency.
Make it Spicy: Add a pinch of crushed red pepper flakes if you like a hint of heat in your sauce.
Extra Freshness: For a fresher taste, add 1-2 tsp of fresh chopped basil or parsley at the end.
