How To Make Spaghetti Sauce Recipe?

1. Season the Ground Beef: Season the ground beef with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
2. Brown the Beef: In a large skillet, add the ground beef and chopped onion about 150g. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the beef is browned. Drain any excess grease.
3. Add the Sauce Ingredients: Add the tomato sauce 425g, tomato paste 170g, Italian seasoning 1.5g, parsley flakes 1.5g, garlic powder 3g, crushed red pepper flakes, Worcestershire sauce 15ml, and granulated sugar 12g to the skillet. Stir well to combine.
4. Bring to a Boil: Stir in 240ml of water, bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
5. Add Basil: If desired, add 15g of fresh basil leaves just before serving.
6. Serve: Serve the sauce over cooked spaghetti noodles.

Recipe Tips:

• Use a Mix of Beef and Sausage: Combining ground beef with Italian sausage will give the sauce a richer flavor and a perfect balance of savory taste.
• Simmer for Longer Flavor: Allow the sauce to simmer for at least 30 minutes to develop deeper flavors. If you have more time, simmer it longer for an even richer taste.
• Adjust the Spice Level: Taste the sauce and adjust the crushed red pepper flakes to suit your spice preference. You can also add a pinch of chili powder for extra heat.
• Don’t Skip Draining the Grease: After browning the meat, always drain the excess grease to keep the sauce from becoming too oily.
• Fresh Basil for the Best Flavor: Add fresh basil at the end for a burst of freshness and extra flavor. It’s a simple touch that makes a big difference.

How To Store & Reheat Leftovers?

• Refrigerate: Let the leftover sauce cool to room temperature, then store it in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
• Freeze: After cooling, freeze the sauce in a freezer-safe container for up to 3 months.
• Reheat: Heat the sauce in a pot over medium heat, stirring occasionally. Add a little water if it gets too thick.
