Instructions
  1. First, chop the onion. On medium heat, saute it in a large pot with the oil until soft and translucent (about 10 mins). Then, add in the minced garlic and cook an additional 2-3 mins.
  2. I like to puree the onions and garlic to give the sauce a smoother texture. You can skip this step if you don’t mind the onions. To puree, add the onions and garlic to a blender with 1 can of tomato sauce and blend until it’s smooth. You can also use an immersion blender here if you have one.
  3. Add the pureed mixture back to pot with all of the remaining ingredients (except the ground beef). Stir the sauce and let it simmer on low for 4 hours. You can add water to the sauce if it gets too thick. The amount of water you add depends on how think you want your sauce.
  4. In the last 30 minutes, prepare the ground beef in a skillet on med-high heat. It should be well done before adding to the sauce. Once it’s cooked, add it to the sauce and stir well to combine. Once the beef is added, the sauce is complete and ready to eat!
