This is family favorite sauce. It cooks on the stove a couple of hours and makes the kitchen smell delicious. It is thick and filling, just add a salad and slice of garlic bread for a complete meal. If I am in a rush, I use frozen chopped onion and fresh garlic in a jar. Note: you can vary the size cans of tomatoes and sauce to your taste. Ingredients:
1 onion, chopped fine |
2 garlic cloves, chopped |
3 tablespoons olive oil |
3 bay leaves |
1 pinch oregano |
3/4-1 lb ground beef |
3/4-1 lb mushroom, sliced |
1 (6 ounce) can tomato paste |
2 (14 ounce) cans tomato sauce |
1 (14 ounce) can diced tomatoes |
1 (10 1/2 ounce) can beef consomme |
salt |
pepper |
Directions:
1. Saute onion and garlic in oil until soft.
2. Add beef and mushrooms and saute. Drain fat.
3. Add all seasonings and one to one and a half cans tomato sauce, paste and tomatoes and beef consume.
4. Cook, covered over a slow flame for 2 hours. Add additional tomato sauce if needed to achieve the consistency and taste you desire. Serve with your favorite pasta to good appetites!
