I got this recipe from a friend 30 years ago and have never found one better. My children grew up eating it and now when they come to visit they always ask me to make it. I put 4 hours cooking time because we have to put a time but the longer the better.
Ingredients:
1 onion, chopped
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 (32 ounce) can tomatoes
12 ounces tomato paste
3 cups tomato sauce
1/2 cup water
1/4 cup dry red wine
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1 tablespoon sugar
1 bay leaf
1 dash oregano
1 dash tabasco sauce
1 dash worcestershire sauce
3/4 lb ground beef
3/4 lb italian sausage, crumbled
1 cup fine dry breadcrumb
1/2 cup parmesan cheese
1 teaspoon parsley
1 garlic clove, minced
1/2 cup milk
2 eggs, well beaten
salt and pepper
Directions:
1. Mix ingredients for sauce and cook slowly for several hours. Keep covered.
2. Mix ingredients for meat balls together. Shape only slightly larger than a walnut. Brown in 1/2 olive oil and 1/2 vegetable oil.
3. Add meatballs to sauce and cook at least 15 minutes more to mix flavors.
