KITTENCAL'S PORCUPINE MEATBALLS IN SWEET AND SOUR TOMATO SAUCE



Kittencal's Porcupine Meatballs in Sweet and Sour Tomato Sauce image

If you don't mind the idea of using canned soup this is a delicious tomato sauce, because of the instant rice in the meatballs it will need about 1-1/2 to 2 hours of cooking time , I sometimes remove about 1/2 to 3/4 cup of the simmering sauce cool slightly then mix into the ground beef mixture before shaping into meatballs, you may need to adjust the brown sugar and vinegar amounts during cooking --- for meatballs I use my recipe#69173

KITTENCAL'S PIZZA SAUCE



Kittencal's Pizza Sauce image

This is a full-flavored rich pizza sauce that I have been making for over 20 years, the longer you simmer this sauce the thicker and richer it will be --- this sauce freezes very well and even tastes better if made a day ahead and left in the fridge overnight to blend flavors --- also see my recipe#232188

Categories     Sauces

Time 40m

Yield 4 cups (approx)

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 -4 tablespoons vegetable oil or 3 -4 tablespoons canola oil
1 medium onion (finely chopped)
1 tablespoon minced fresh garlic (or use 1 teaspoon garlic powder or to taste)
3 -4 teaspoons dried Italian seasoning (or to taste, I use 1 tablespoon)
2 -4 teaspoons oregano
1/4 cup tomato paste
1 (28 ounce) can crushed tomatoes (can use tomato sauce in place of crushed tomatoes or use a combination of both if desired)
1 teaspoon salt (or to taste, I use seasoned salt)
black pepper (to taste) (optional)
1 -2 teaspoon sugar (add in only if needed at the end of cooking) (optional)

Steps:

  • In a saucepan, heat the olive oil; saute the onions, Italian seasoning and oregano for about 2-3 minutes, stirring until soft but not brown.
  • Add in garlic and saute for 2 minutes, stirring constantly.
  • Add in the tomato paste; stir and cook 1 minute.
  • Add in the remaining ingredients; cook and simmer on low heat for 1/2 to 3/4 hours, stirring occasionally, adding more salt if needed (the longer you cook this sauce the thicker and richer it will be!).
  • Cool slightly and use immediately or refrigerate up to 5 days or you may freeze.
  • *NOTE* freeze in plastic containers after cooled, I find that this sauce tastes even better if left in the fridge overnight to blend the flavors before using or freezing.
  • Delicious!

This recipe goes back over 20 years and I still make it, my family loves this and I often serve this with kielbasa sausage that I slice and lightly brown first then add into the skillet along with the noodles, any smoked dry sausage will do, it's just as delicious without the sausage:)
