Mamma's REAL Pasta Sauce Right from the Mountains of Central Italy

Easy and authentic, I haven't put measurements as I feel measurements are a personal taste and add what you will.

As far as I'm concerned anything other than this is not authentic. I am Italian, and have eaten pasta from my house, my relatives houses, my friends houses, and this is the basic recipe...

For pasta I like spaghetti or rigatoni or penne al dente.


- Ribs 4 pieces pork or beef
- Veal small piece of veal shank
- Beef small pieces of stewing beef
- Meatballs (your recipe)
- Big can of peeled cooked tomatoes
- Tomato paste
- Olive oil
- 4 cloves of smashed Garlic
- Half an Onion
- Parsley

In a large sided saucepan heat about 3 quarters inch oil at bottom, when hot toss in ALL the meats, onion, garlic and let the meat brown really really good.

When the meat is browned really really good, toss in the tomatoes, the paste and the parsley.

Let simmer for 2 hours on medium heat.

Done!
