Categories     Main Course

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 13

1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil (I used Private Reserve Greek extra virgin olive oil)
1 medium yellow onion, grated
3 garlic cloves, finely minced
2 carrots, finely grated (use a food processor or a grater)
28 oz canned crushed tomatoes
1/2 cup water (pasta cooking water, preferred)
Kosher salt and black pepper
1 tbsp dried oregano
1 tsp sweet Spanish paprika
Pinch red pepper flakes, optional
Handful fresh basil, about ½ cup packed, torn
Handful fresh parsley, about ½ cup packed, chopped
3/4 lb to 1 lb of cooked pasta of your choice

Steps:

  • In a large pan heat the extra virgin olive oil over medium heat until just shimmering. Add the onions, garlic, and finely grated carrots. Cook for about 5 minutes, stirring regularly until softened.
  • Add the crushed tomatoes and about 1/2 cup water. Add a generous pinch of salt and pepper. Stir in oregano, paprika, crushed pepper flakes, if using. Finally, stir in the fresh basil and parsley.
  • Bring the sauce to a boil, then turn heat to low. Cover and let simmer for about 15 to 20 minutes. Check partway through, and if you feel the sauce is too thick, you can add a bit more water (preferably some of your pasta cooking water). When sauce is ready, throw in more fresh basil, if you like.
  • If serving for dinner, add cooked pasta of your choice to the sauce. Mix to combine and let the pasta cook in the sauce over low heat for about 5 minutes.

RESTAURANT STYLE SPAGHETTI SAUCE WITH SAUSAGE



Restaurant Style Spaghetti Sauce with Sausage image

It's easy to make restaurant-style Spaghetti Sauce using just a few ingredients. Adding sausage makes the sauce even more flavorful, but if you don't eat meat its okay to leave it out. This is the recipe I used throughout my long restaurant career.

Provided by Chef Dennis Littley

Categories     Sauce

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 cloves fresh garlic (chopped)
120 ounces crushed tomato ((four 28-32 ounce cans) San Marzano if possible)
2 pounds sweet Italian sausage
2 bunches fresh basil (finely chopped)
1 medium onion (diced)
1/2 cup olive oil
1 tbsp sea salt (or more to taste)
1/2 tsp black pepper (or more to taste)
1 tbsp sugar (optional)

Steps:

  • In a large heated skillet or saucepot add olive oil and sausage. Saute sausage on both sides until it browns.
  • When the sausage has browned add the diced onion and chopped garlic. Continue cooking until the onions are translucent, but do not allow them to burn!
  • Add crushed tomatoes, rinse cans with just a little water and add to the sauce (if crushed tomatoes are not available use whole tomatoes and crush by hand or with an immersion blender).
  • add chopped basil, sea salt and black pepper to taste (don't over season, you can always add more later). If you choose to add sugar now is the time to add it.
  • After your sauce has reached a boil, reduce the heat to simmer and continue to cook for at least two hours. If you've got the time let it simmer for 4-6 hours for an amazingly rich tomato sauce.

CHEF LYLE'S HOMEMADE SPAGHETTI SAUCE



Chef Lyle's Homemade Spaghetti Sauce image

This is my Grandmothers Recipe with a Chef's Improvements and makes a lot of sauce. I feed three families from a batch and have extra left over to can or freeze. It is time consuming but well worth the time. Freezes well Chefs Tip: I know fresh herbs are expensive if you do not have a herb garden but the taste is well worth the expense, and so to save money and so that you do not throw out the leftover herbs when buying them from your grocer, Place herbs on a aluminum foil covered baking sheet and place in oven on its lowest settings for about 12 hours thus drying the herbs then clean and discard the stems and place them in individually marked Ziploc baggies roiling out the air before sealing and use within 6 months.

2 (28 ounce) cans whole canned tomatoes

1 tablespoon fresh oregano
1 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
1/4 cup sherry wine vinegar
1/4 cup sugar

Steps:

  • In a sieve over a medium non-reactive saucepot, strain the tomatoes of their juice into the sauce pot. Add the sherry vinegar, sugar, red pepper flakes, oregano, and basil to the tomato juice. Stir and cook over high heat. Once bubbles begin to form on the surface, reduce to a simmer. Allow liquid to reduce by 1/2 or until liquid has thickened to a loose syrup consistency.
  • Squeeze each tomato thoroughly to ensure most seeds are removed.
  • Cut carrot, onion, and celery into uniform sizes and combine with olive oil and garlic in a non-reactive roasting pan over low heat. Sweat the mirepoix until the carrots are tender and the onion becomes translucent, 15 to 20 minutes. Add the tomatoes and capers to the roasting pan.
  • Place roasting pan on the middle rack of the oven and broil for 15 to 20 minutes, stirring every 5 minutes. Tomatoes should start to brown slightly on edges with light caramelization. Remove the pan from the broiler. Place the pan over 2 burners on the stove. Add 1/2 cup of the wine to the tomatoes and cook for 2 to 3 more minutes over medium heat, and set aside.
  • In a large 10 quart saucepan over medium heat, sauté the ground beef, pork and sausage until browned.
  • Remove from pan and set aside.
  • Drain off excess fat reserving approximately 2 tablespoons.
  • Add back the meat,tomatoes and remaining ingredients and reserved fat and stir until smooth. Simmer for 3 to 4 hours on low heat, stirring often to prevent scorching.
  • Add more water as needed to thin sauce and adjust seasonings to taste.
  • Meat is used mostly to flavor the sauce so if desired you will need more for future meals.
