  6. Add bell pepper, and continue cooking until onion is slightly browned, stirring regularly.

  12. Slice sausage into 1/4 thick disks.
  13. Fry over medium-high heat until well browned.
  14. Drain thoroughly, and add to tomato mixture.

  16. Return pan to heat and deglaze with 1/2 cup wine, and add to tomato mixture.
  17. Simmer sauce, uncovered, for 15 minutes, stirring regularly.
  18. Stir in optional 1/2 cup of Parmesan cheese, taste, and adjust seasoning if necessary, and simmer until total cooking time is about 45-60 minutes.
  19. Serve over freshly cooked pasta.
  20. Pass Parmesan cheese on the side.
