KITTENCAL'S DELICIOUS MEATY PASTA SAUCE

Kittencal's Delicious Meaty Pasta Sauce image

I don't think you will find a better meat sauce than this one! a good tomato sauce needs time to "ripen" so I strongly suggest to make this sauce a few day ahead and refrigerate just warm in a saucepan before using you will see that the flavors strongly intensify after refrigeration time --if you want a creamy sauce just add in 1/4 cup or more of heavy whipping cream the last 30 minutes of cooking time, this may be doubled if desired but keep the ground beef amount at one pound, this also freezes well... you will love this!

Time 2h15m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 20

Ingredients

1/3 cup olive oil (or use enough sauce to coat the bottom of your skillet)
3 teaspoons dried basil
3 teaspoons oregano
1 -2 teaspoon dried chili pepper flakes (or to taste)
1 large bay leaf
1 medium onion, finely chopped
6 garlic cloves, finely chopped tablespoons (or to taste, I like lots of garlic!)
1 (6 ounce) can tomato paste
1 lb lean ground beef
1/2 lb Italian sausage, casings removed
1/2 cup dry red wine
1 (28 ounce) can crushed tomatoes
1 (8 ounce) can tomato sauce
1 1/2 cups good-quality beef broth
3/4 lb button mushroom (or use a couple cans whole drained mushrooms, but fresh is better!)
1 -2 teaspoon white sugar
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce (or to taste)
1 tablespoon salt (or to taste a good tomato sauce needs lots of salt)
1 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
fresh grated parmesan cheese

Steps:

In a Dutch oven heat oil, then add in the basil, oregano, chili flakes, bay leaf and onion; saute, stirring with a wooden spoon for about 4 minutes (this will release the flavors in the spices).
Add in garlic and cook for 2 minutes.
Add in tomato paste and cook stirring with a wooden spoon for 2 minutes.
Add in ground beef and sausage meat; cook until well browned (about 10 minutes) drain any fat.
Add in the wine and simmer for 2-3 minutes, stirring.
Add in crushed tomatoes, tomato sauce, beef broth, mushrooms, sugar, 2 tablespoons salt, Worcestershire sauce; bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer partially covered for about 2 hours (or you can simmer for longer on low heat).
Season with black pepper.
Remove the bay leaf and serve over hot cooked pasta then sprinkle with lots grated Parmesan cheese.

KITTENCAL'S MARINARA PASTA SAUCE (VEGETARIAN)

Kittencal's Marinara Pasta Sauce (Vegetarian) image

This is a basic simple marinara but big on flavor, it can be ready in 1 hour or you can cook it longer and even tastes better the next day that is why I strongly suggest to make this sauce 1-3 days ahead and refrigerate as the flavors will blend and intensify ---this freezes well so make a double recipe and freeze a batch for the next meal, you may omit the wine but I strongly suggest to add it in, it really adds flavor to the sauce --- please make certain to purchase only good-quality canned Italian Roma (plum) tomatoes for this it will make a huge difference to the flavor of the sauce --- all ingredients may be adjusted to suit taste, this sauce can also be simmered for a longer time in a crockpot, throw in some fresh mushrooms also if desired --- also see my recipe#71273

Time 1h15m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

Ingredients

3 -4 tablespoons olive oil (I use enough oil to lightly coat the bottom of my pot)
1 large onion, chopped
4 -6 garlic cloves, minced (or to taste, the more the better I use 6 extra large cloves)
1 tablespoon dried basil (rubbed between fingers to release flavor)
2 teaspoons dried oregano (rubbed between fingers to release flavor)
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (optional or adjust to taste)
1 (6 ounce) can tomato paste (can use two cans for a thicker richer sauce if desired)
1 (28 ounce) can whole roma tomatoes, undrained (break up with a fork before cooking, go ahead and use two cans if desired!)
1/3-1/2 cup dry red wine (you may omit if desired but good to add in, can use white wine)
2 teaspoons sugar (optional or to taste)
1 teaspoon salt (or to taste, a good tomato sauce needs lots so don't be shy with the salt)
fresh ground black pepper (to taste)

Steps:

In a heavy-bottomed stockpot or Dutch oven heat oil over medium-high heat.
Add in onions, garlic and dried red pepper flakes, basil and oregano; saute for about 3-4 minutes.
Add in the tomato paste and stir for 2-3 minutes.
Add in the Roma tomatoes with juice and wine; simmer uncovered over low heat for 1-2 hours (I usually cook it for at least a couple of hours) stirring occasionally.
Season with salt and pepper and add in sugar if desired.
**NOTE** if you prefer a thinner sauce, then add in some water.

KITTENCAL'S ITALIAN TOMATO PASTA SAUCE AND PARMESAN MEATBALLS

Kittencal's Italian Tomato Pasta Sauce and Parmesan Meatballs image

There is a method to making the perfect sauce and that is a very long slow cooking time then refrigerate to blend the flavors, a good sauce needs time to "ripen" and develop it's full flavor, this sauce must be made a day or even up 4 days ahead in order for the flavors to intensify, the longer you leave it refrigerated the better it will be --- this recipe makes a fair amount use what you need then freeze the rest in plastic containers for another meal, for a quick thaw just pop in the microwave for about 8 minutes or a little more or thaw in refrigerator overnight, if desired you may partially precook the meatballs on a greased baking sheet in oven before adding to the sauce --- you will love this sauce and you will be making it often! ---- also see my recipe#150207

Categories Sauces

Time 3h30m

Yield 10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

Ingredients

prepared meatballs, recipe (see my Kittencal's Italian Melt-In-Your-Mouth Meatballs)
olive oil (to cover bottom of the pot)
1 large onion, chopped
6 large garlic cloves, finely chopped (or to taste)
1 -2 bay leaf
1 tablespoon dried oregano (rubbed with fingers to release the oils)
1 tablespoon dried basil (rubbed with fingers to release the oils)
1 -2 tablespoon salt (or to taste)
1 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper (or to taste)
1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (optional or to taste)
1 (6 ounce) can tomato paste
1/3-1/2 cup dry red wine (or to taste)
2 (28 ounce) cans crushed tomatoes (can use 3 cans if you plan of freezing some sauce)
2 (28 ounce) cans diced tomatoes, well drained
1 tablespoon sugar (optional and to be added in the last 30 minutes of cooking time)

Steps:

Prepare the meatball recipe as directed on the recipe; transfer to a plate cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to use (the meatballs may be prepared up to 1 day in advance).
Drain the diced tomatoes over a strainer.
Coat bottom of large heavy-bottomed pot with olive oil, heat over medium heat.
Saute onion with bay leaf, oregano, basil, salt, black pepper and crushed chili peppers for about 5-7 minutes or until the onions are transparent.
Add in fresh garlic; cook stirring for 2 minutes.
Add the tomato paste;mix and stir for about 2 minutes or until well combined with the onion mixture.
Add in the wine; stir well to combine.
Add the 2 cans crushed tomatoes (can use 3 cans if you are freezing some sauce) and the drained diced tomatoes, stir and bring to a light boil; boil for 5-8 minutes then reduce heat to low.
Add in uncooked meatballs to the sauce (if you are adding the meatballs uncooked do not stir for 30 minutes or you may run the risk of them falling apart in the simmering sauce).
Simmer uncovered on low heat for about 3-5 hours (the longer you simmer uncovered the thicker and richer your sauce will be so don't be afraid to simmer even 6 hours!) adding more salt if desired.
Skim off any fat that might gather on top of sauce.
Allow to cool to room temperature then refrigerate (with the meatballs in the sauce) a minimum of 1 day or up to 4 days before using.
Use as much as desired then freeze the rest for another meal, just reheat the sauce on top of the stove or heat in microwave (this will freeze well for up to 6 months).
Note: if desired, you can bake the meatballs in the oven before adding to the sauce.
