A very thick and dark sauce with a little red pepper kick. Adjust the crushed red pepper to suit your tastes. This sauce freezes well too. Ingredients:
1 onion, chopped |
3 cloves garlic, minced |
2 tablespoons olive oil |
1 (28 ounce) can whole peeled tomatoes |
2 (6 ounce) cans tomato paste |
2 tablespoons dried basil |
1 tablespoon dried oregano |
2 bay leaves |
1 tablespoon white sugar |
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes |
1/4 cup red wine |
1 pound italian sausage (optional) |
Directions:
1. Heat olive oil in a large saucepan or Dutch oven. Saute onions and garlic until tender, 2-3 minutes. Add remaining ingredients (except sausage links) and simmer over low heat for 3 hours. 2. With one hour cooking time remaining, cook and brown sausages in a skillet. When browned, place in sauce and continue to simmer. Remove bay leaves before serving. Serve over hot cooked noodles, with sausages on the side. |
