Ingredients

700g pasta - spaghetti is most common with this sauce

1 bottle of tomato puree (1 liter)

1 tin of tomato pulp

1 cube of Star vegetable stock

1 onion - diced

1 green bell pepper - cut into 2×1 cm strips

About 700g minced beef

1 teaspoon of rosemary

1 teaspoon of thyme

2 teaspoons of origanum

1 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon pepper

1 glass of your favorite red wine

Directions

In a large saucepan cook the minced beef till its broken up and starts turning brown

Put heat to medium-high, add onion and 1 teaspoon salt and continue frying till meat is properly browned and onions are translucent, don’t burn or brown the onions

Now add the wine, stock cube, green pepper and chili pepper - increase heat a little, mix and leave it to boil in the wine for 3 minutes

Fill a large pot with water according to instructions on pasta package and bring it to boil while you continue…

Add the tomato puree and pulp, mix well adding the thyme, rosemary, origanum and pepper

Can add half a tin of water too - I use it to wash all the pulp/puree out of the tin/bottle adding it to the sauce

Bring to boil then put heat low and cover

Leave the sauce to cook while you prepare the pasta according to instructions

Once pasta is drained, scoop about 3-4 ladles of sauce into it and mix before serving on plates, this stops it from sticking together

Scoop some additional sauce over the pasta once in plates

Enjoy immediately while hot

Nemo, thank you for sharing. This sounds great. I like the amount and the combination of spices. Especially, I like the 1 teaspoon pepper. :)

Ooh yes, pepper is good! The secret with tomato puree is to leave it to cook a long time, some leave it up to 3 hours! so this sauce will just get better the longer it cooks on low heat. That's why unlike the other pasta sauces I've posted, this one has you preparing the pasta's water later on instead of first ;) Giving more time to cook the sauce.
