Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Place the onions, carrots, celery, and salt pork (if using) in a food processor and process to a fine paste. In a heated skillet with olive oil, brown this combination.
  2. Add the ground meat to the skillet and brown.
  3. Once the meat is browned, add the wine and cook to evaporate it.
  4. Add the salt, black pepper, tomatoes, tomato paste, and water. Bring to a boil and lower the heat to simmer for 2 hours covered. Stir from the bottom every 20 minutes. Be careful that the heat is not too high - it will burn.
  5. Uncover and simmer 1 more hour.
  6. Enjoy!
