MAMMA MIA MEAT SAUCE



Mamma Mia Meat Sauce image

My mother clipped this recipe out of USA Weekend back in 1993 - it was always the sauce she made while I was growing up (it's a recipe by Kathie Lee Gifford). Now that I cook myself, I've taken the recipe and adapted it to a few of my own 'likes' and now use this as my sauce for pasta, lasagna and ravioli! Can't be beat! (this recipe freezes very well!)

Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 2h45m

Yield 6 quarts

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 lbs ground beef
4 (28 ounce) cans tomato sauce
1 (18 ounce) can tomato paste
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 medium onion, chopped
1 cup dried parsley (yes, 1 cup!)
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
2 teaspoons crushed garlic
1 tablespoon parmesan cheese, grated
salt, to taste
pepper, to taste
1/2 tablespoon sugar (if needed)

Steps:

  • In large saucepan or Dutch oven (at least 6 quarts), brown ground beef until no longer pink; drain.
  • Add remaining ingredients and bring to boil.
  • Reduce heat; simmer for 2-3 hours (the longer the better for my own tastes), stirring occasionally.
  • If sauce tastes a little on the acidic side (from tomato sauce/paste), add the sugar.
  • Serve over pasta!

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients. Fresh, flavorful ingredients will make your pasta dishes taste better. If possible, use organic or locally-sourced ingredients.
  • Don't overcook the pasta. Pasta should be cooked al dente, which means it should be tender but still have a slight bite to it. Overcooked pasta is mushy and unpleasant.
  • Use a large pot of water to cook the pasta. This will help to prevent the pasta from sticking together.
  • Season the pasta water. Adding salt to the pasta water will help to flavor the pasta. You can also add other seasonings, such as olive oil, garlic, or herbs.
  • Don't rinse the pasta after cooking. Rinsing the pasta will remove the starch, which is what helps the sauce to stick to the pasta.
  • Use a variety of sauces. There are many different types of pasta sauces, so don't be afraid to experiment. Try different combinations of ingredients to find your favorite sauce.
  • Garnish your pasta dishes. A simple garnish can make a big difference in the presentation of your dish. Try adding some grated cheese, chopped herbs, or a drizzle of olive oil.

Conclusion:

Pasta is a versatile and delicious dish that can be enjoyed in many different ways. With a little creativity, you can create endless pasta dishes that will please everyone at your table. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, reach for a box of pasta and start cooking!
