3 tablespoons olive oil
4 cloves garlic, quartered

2 tablespoons water
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
1 ½ teaspoons ground sage
½ teaspoon dried thyme

Steps:

Heat the olive oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add garlic, and saute until lightly browned. Pour in the white wine, and simmer for a minute. Pour in the tomatoes with juice and water, and season with pepper, sage, thyme, and the bay leaf. Bring to a boil, and let simmer for about 20 minutes.
