New Spaghetti Meat Sauce

(New because I have several spaghetti sauce recipes.)


1/2 K. ground beef and pork (250 g. each or whatever you have on hand.)

1 C. water

3 cloves of garlic, chopped

1 small onion, chopped

2 T. green pepper, chopped

1/2 t. dried basil

1/2 t. dried oregano

2 T. Tomato paste

500 gr. Tomato sauce

1 small can whole peeled tomatoes

1 Knorr beef cube

1 C. water

1 1/2 t. salt

1/2 t. ground black pepper

1 t. MSG

1/4 C. white sugar 


Add 1 C. water to the ground meat.  It will be easier to cook it and will not be lumpy.

Cook the ground meat in a pot and stir continuously to break apart the meat.  When the water evaporates add the garlic, onions and green pepper.  Saute until onions are clear and soft.

Add the basil and oregano.  Continue cooking for a minute or two.

Add the tomato paste and after a few minutes, add the tomato sauce, Knorr beef cube, canned whole peeled tomatoes and water.

Lower the heat and mash the tomatoes with the back of the spoon.  Simmer for an hour, stirring every 10 minutes.

Season with salt, pepper, msg and sugar.

    1. Hello! Yes, 1/2 K pork and beef combined, depends on the ratio you want. Ideally 250 g beef and 250 g pork.
