There are times when I make a lasagna that I want a hearty sauce that has a great taste and robust. Here is a easy one with a great taste.
Ingredients:
————
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 large onion, chopped
- 1 lb of lean ground beef
- 1 28 oz. can of tomato puree
- 1/2 lb mushrooms, sliced
- 1/4 cup of wine vinegar or red wine
- 1 rounded tablespoon sugar
- 1 1/2 teaspoons basil
- 1 teaspoon oregano
- 1/4 teaspoon thyme
- 1/8 teaspoon marjoram
- a pinch of rosemary
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon pepper flakes (hot)
- 4 or 5 good grinds of pepper
Put the olive oil in large pan or dutch oven and heat on medium. Add garlic and onion and sauté until onion is beginning to soften. (about 2 minuted) Add meat and brown completely. Add remaining ingredients and stir well. Cover dutch oven and put into a 300 degree oven for about an hour or more. This is usually when I make the pasta for the lasagna and start assembling the other components. For thicker sauce, add a little more ground beef.
