Homemade Tomato Sauce With Italian Sausage and Red Wine image

I used Mario Batali's recipe for basic tomato sauce and added the flavors I love. That means crumbled italian sausage and red wine (my favorite italian flavors). I love the taste of this sauce because it uses thyme as the main flavor. It seems that others like it too, as I am always having to give the recipe out. I especially like to use it in my lasagna. Hope you enjoy!

Time 1h5m

Yield 6 cups, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
1 Spanish onion, diced small
4 garlic cloves, peeled and chopped
3 tablespoons fresh thyme leaves, chopped
1/2 medium carrot, finely grated
1 (28 ounce) can crushed tomatoes
1 (28 ounce) can diced tomatoes with juice
1 lb sweet Italian sausage
1 cup red wine (I use Cabernet Sauvignon)
salt (optional)

Steps:

  • Saute 1 lb. sweet italian sausage until light pink, almost done.
  • Add olive oil, onion and garlic and cook on medium until soft and golden brown, about 8-10 minutes.
  • Add the thyme and carrot and cook 5 minutes more, until the carrot is soft.
  • Add the red wine and cook for one minute.
  • Add the canned tomatoes and bring to a boil, stirring often.
  • Lower the heat and simmer for 30 minutes until consistensy is thick.
  • Season with salt if desired (I usually don't need to) and serve.
  • You can substitute 1 tablespoon dried thyme for the fresh thyme.
  • Try adding 2 cups of grated fresh zucchini at the same time as the tomatoes for a fresh summer sauce.
  • Try adding one pound of fresh sliced mushrooms at the same time as the carrots.

I found this sauce to be a bit bland. I added some extra garlic and oregano, and it was much better.

This sauce was a little too spicy for my taste, but it was still very good. I would recommend using a milder sausage next time.
