How to Make Hot Parma Dip Meatball Sauce

  1. Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add 1/2 cup chopped celery, 1/2 cup chopped onion, and 1/2 cup chopped green bell pepper.
  2. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are tender, about 5-7 minutes.
  3. Stir in 2 tablespoons of all-purpose flour and cook for 2 minutes, stirring constantly, to create a roux. Gradually whisk in 1 (28-ounce) can crushed tomatoes, 1 teaspoon dried oregano, 1/2 teaspoon dried basil, 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder, salt and pepper to taste.
  4. Bring to a simmer, reduce heat to low, and cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  5. Reduce heat to low and stir in 1 cup shredded Parmesan cheese, 1/4 cup water, and 2 tablespoons dry white wine (optional). Stir until the cheese is melted and the sauce is smooth and creamy.
  6. Serve immediately with your favorite meatballs, sausages, chicken strips, or over spaghetti.
