- 1 lb extra lean ground beef
- 1 small sweet onion, finely diced
- 5 garlic cloves, minced
- 14 cup olive oil
- 1 (28 ounce) can crushed tomatoes
- 1 (28 ounce) can diced tomatoes (do not drain)
- 1 (14 1/2 ounce) can tomato sauce
- 1 12 cups red wine
- 12 cup water
- 3 tablespoons crushed red pepper flakes
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 2 bay leaves
- 1 tablespoon oregano
- 1 tablespoon basil
- 1 tablespoon parsley
- 1 cup parmesan cheese
Method
- In a large pot saute onion and garlic in olive oil until soft.
- Add ground beef and brown until almost done (some pink still).
- Add canned tomatoes, water and red wine.
- bring to a boil and then reduce to a low boil.
- Add seasonings and cheese.
- Cover and simmer for at least 1 hour, up to 3 hours.
- Add more water or wine if too thick or turn up the heat and let boil uncovered to thicken.
- I generally use what I need for the night and let the rest cool and then freeze in sandwich-sized ziplocks for a quick meal.
