Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Empty the tomatoes into a large saucepan and turn the heat to medium.
  2. In the meantime, heat a heavy skillet over medium heat.
  3. When hot, add the ground beef and stir it around until brown.
  4. You do not need to add oil as the fat from the beef will suffice.
  5. When the meat is cooked, remove with a slotted spoon, allowing excess oil to drip back into the skillet, and transfer the meat to the saucepan of tomatoes and stir.
  6. Add the onions and garlic to the fat in the skillet and cook until the onion is tender.
  7. Remove with a slotted spoon, again, allowing the excess oil to drip back into the skillet and stir into the tomatoes.
  8. Stir in the salt, sugar and basil.
  9. Bring sauce to a boil, cover, then turn down the heat to simmer for 1 1/2 hours, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
  10. Turn off the heat and let the pot sit on the stove until you are ready to use it.
  11. If you are planning to use it the next day, refrigerate when cooled.
  12. Reheat as necessary or freeze for future use.
