The sauce was a little too thin. I would recommend simmering it for a longer period of time next time.

This sauce is a bit too spicy for my taste. I would recommend using less chili flakes next time.

This slow-cooked spaghetti sauce is a game-changer! The flavors are incredibly rich and complex, and the meat is fall-apart tender. I served it over spaghetti, but it would also be great with meatballs or sausage.
