HOMEMADE CHUNKY SPAGHETTI SAUCE



Homemade Chunky Spaghetti Sauce image

We used to have this incredible Russian restaurant here and they used to make something similar to this. I decided when they went out of business that I would try to replicate one of their fabulous dishes. You may add or subtract any of the veggie ingredients to you liking. It seems to be if you add more veggies of various kinds, you may get a pasta primavera, without the tomato paste.

Time 1h30m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/2-1 lb linguine
2 (14 ounce) cans diced tomatoes (you may choose whatever flavor, I like to use garlic and onion or mushroom and garlic or basil, garl)
1 green pepper
1 (8 ounce) can of medium black olives
1 medium sweet onion
olive oil, just enough to cover the pan
1 lb fresh mushrooms (or more)
1 zucchini (optional)
jalapenos (optional) or red pepper (optional)
1 -2 pinch dried basil or 1 -2 pinch fresh basil
vegan butter, you may add this when you are cooking your onions in addition to the olive oil, it gives the sauce a

Steps:

  • Get a skillet deep enough to hold the contents and the liquid of the sauce. Remember that the veggies will cook down so you need not use a pot unless you are doubling the recipe
  • Quarter your mushrooms.
  • Use about ½ a green pepper. You may use more or less depending on your taste for green pepper.
  • Chunk the onion. Kind of like strips then cut the strips in half. This gives the sauce a great flavor.
  • Heat your pan and add the olive oil. Make sure that the olive oil covers the bottom of the pan.
  • Add your onion and sauté until they are almost clear.
  • Add your green pepper and sauté until they are almost soft.
  • Add your mushrooms and sauté until they are almost soft.
  • If you are using zucchini, add now. This will take awhile to cook down so be patient.
  • At this point you may need to add more oil or butter.
  • When your veggies are at a good constancy, add 1-2 cans of diced tomatoes, 2 cans of sliced black olives, 2 pinches of dried basil, and the jalapeno or red pepper if you chose to use.
  • Cover and let simmer for 30-45 minutes on low.
  • Start cooking linguine
  • By the time the linguine is done, so should be your sauce.
  • Drain and serve linguine and cover with sauce.

MIMI'S FANTASTIC THICK SPAGHETTI SAUCE



Mimi's Fantastic Thick Spaghetti Sauce image

A few years ago I came upon a sauce that was so good but........... I altered it quite a bit to fit our family. This is now the best sauce I have ever had and if you follow the measurements, it will come out the same every single time. I use Tuttoroso brand in the puree, paste, and sauce because that is the one my friend's mother always used. She was from Italy and made the best sauce in the world. Hubby loves it and comments on it whenever we have it which is once a week. It freezes well and is great with meatballs even thought there is a lot of meat in the sauce. Serve it with garlic bread and you will be sooooo happy.

Time 2h20m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 lb italian sweet sausage
1 lb hamburger (I use chuck (80% I think it is)
2 fresh garlic cloves (minced)
1/2 medium onion (chopped)
2 (28 ounce) cans tomato puree (see note above on the brand I use)
2 (6 ounce) cans tomato paste
2 (8 ounce) cans tomato sauce
2 1/2 cups water
3 1/2 teaspoons basil
2 1/2 teaspoons parsley
2 teaspoons brown sugar (could use white if you want to)
1 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 cup parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • In a heavy pot, brown sausage and hamburg, breaking it up into smaller pieces.
  • Add chopped onions and minced garlic and cook till meat is done; add tomato paste and stir until it is mixed in well.
  • Add tomato puree, sauce, and water (when measuring the water, put it into the puree can to rinse it all out and then add to meat mixture).
  • Add basil, brown sugar, salt, parsley, and black pepper and mix well.
  • Add the Parmesan cheese (yes, to the the sauce) and mix it in well.
  • Simmer on low for 2-4 hours stirring occasionally so it won't burn; if you think it needs some thinning down, add about 1/8 cup water at a time; don't add too much because you want it thick so it will stick to your pasta.
  • Cook your spaghetti and enjoy! Eat what you want and freeze the rest in containers that will hold the amount you will eat at a sitting.

LESLIE'S THICK & CHUNKY SPAGHETTI SAUCE



Leslie's Thick & Chunky Spaghetti Sauce image

When I first got married, I had never made spaghetti because my family didn't eat it. My husband made some sauce & had to leave, and told me to watch it. OK, so I went in & looked at it every once in awhile. He came home a couple hours later to a solid mass of sauce in the pan! He said "i asked you to watch it. Didn't you stir...

Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 green bell pepper
1 red bell pepper
1 large onion
1 lb hot italian sausage or hamburge
8 oz sliced mushrooms. or more
2 can(s) tomato sauce(hunts)15 oz
1 can(s) tomato paste(hunts)12 oz
1 can(s) tomato paste(hunts) small
1 can(s) petite diced tomatoes
2 tsp minced garlic
1-2 Tbsp italian seasoning
1 tsp seasoning salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
garlic salt, to taste

Steps:

  • 1. Dice onions & peppers to your liking.( We like medium) Brown sausage or ground beef with peppers & onions over med high heat.(Peppers will still be crunchy) Drain if desired.( I ususally drain beef, & partially drain sausage.) Reduce to medium.
  • 2. Add all tomato sauce, then paste, stirring to blend.Add diced tomatoes.
  • 3. Add all seasonings& mushrooms. Cover. Allow to cook for 5-10 min. Stirring to avoid sticking.Reduce to med low. Stir occasionally. Taste. Add garlic salt if needed. Serve over pasta of your choice.
  • 4. This sauce can be eaten after 30 min., but tastes better if cooked longer. I make this in the morining before work, put the whole pot in fridge, Then pop it back on the stove when I get home to reheat slowly. Something about the sauce getting cold & reheating just makes it taste even better.
  • 5. I also use this sauce for baked ziti, chicken parmesean, manicotti & lasangna.
  • 6. Used this sauce from freezer to make Tammy Todd's skillet lasangna! So easy & so good!
