Zubereitung von Sweet Beefy Spaghetti Sauce
- Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large Dutch oven over medium heat.
- Add 1 medium onion, chopped, and 1 green bell pepper, chopped. Cook for 3-4 minutes, until softened.
- Add 1.5 lbs ground beef and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until browned. Avoid over-stirring to maintain beef chunks. Season with freshly ground black pepper to taste (about 1/2 teaspoon).
- Once the beef is browned, stir in 2 (28 ounce) cans crushed tomatoes, 6 ounces tomato paste, 1 cup vegetable stock, 8 ounces cremini mushrooms (sliced), 2 tablespoons fresh basil (chopped), 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
- Bring the sauce to a gentle simmer. Add 2 bay leaves.
- Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 1 hour and 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove bay leaves before serving. For an even sweeter sauce, add 1/2 of a small red bell pepper, finely chopped, along with the onions and green pepper in step 2.
