Spaghetti Bolognese Sauce (Beef and Italian Sausage) image

I've been working on this recipe for years--tweaking and fussing, and I believe it is about ready. My family and friends love it. I also use it as meat sauce filling for lasagna.

Categories     Sauces

Time 1h30m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 22

1 lb ground beef
1 lb link Italian sausage
3 (8 ounce) cans tomato sauce
2 (8 ounce) cans tomato paste
1 (14 ounce) can diced tomatoes (drained)
1 1/2 cups onions (diced)
1 cup bell pepper (diced)
1 cup mushroom (sliced)
1 cup red wine
3 garlic cloves (minced)
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 -2 tablespoon sugar
3 teaspoons basil
1 teaspoon black pepper
2 teaspoons marjoram (dried)
2 teaspoons thyme
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon paprika
2 tablespoons mozzarella cheese (grated)
2 tablespoons parmesan cheese (grated)
1 teaspoon cornstarch
1 tablespoon water

Steps:

  • Brown ground beef, season to taste with salt and pepper, drain and set aside.
  • Cut link sausage up into meatball size pieces, brown, drain, and set aside. I use Thomasville Hot. If making sauce for lasagna, remove sausage from casings and brown with the ground beef.
  • Sauté garlic, onion, and bell pepper in olive oil, just until the onions are translucent.
  • Add meat, tomato sauce, tomato paste, diced tomatoes, herbs and spices, mushrooms, sugar, and wine. I use fresh mushrooms, and a red burgandy for a deeper earthy flavor. Omit mushrooms if making sauce for lasagna.
  • Simmer on medium low for at least one hour, stirring occasionally.
  • When ready to serve, mix corn starch with water and add to sauce, along with both cheeses to thicken.
  • When cheese is incorporated, and sauce has thickened, serve over your choice of pasta or use as a meat filling for lasagna.

I'm allergic to tomatoes, so I had to substitute another ingredient in this recipe. It turned out great!

This recipe is too complicated. I don't have time to spend all day cooking.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my sauce turned out too watery. I had to simmer it for an extra hour to thicken it up.

This recipe is a bit bland. I had to add some extra spices to make it more flavorful.
