Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Heat olive oil in a very large soup/stew pot and saute onions until soft, salt and pepper to taste.
  2. Add remaining ingredients and stir until well combined.
  3. Simmer the sauce for 3 hours and if you are going to add the meatballs:.
  4. Place all meatball ingredients, except olive oil, in a large bowl and mix gently.
  5. Do not over mix the meatballs, they will be tough.
  6. Form and shape either small, 2 diameter balls or larger.
  7. Salt and pepper and set aside.
  8. Now you can either drop the meatballs into the simmering sauce for 3 hours or you can sear them first in the remaining olive oil and then drop them into the sauce.
  9. My Italian friends prefer the fried meatballs.
