How to Make Spaghetti And Meat Sauce
- Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add 2 minced cloves of garlic and 1/2 cup chopped onion. Cook until onions are translucent, about 5 minutes.
- Add 1 pound ground beef (or Italian sausage) to the skillet and brown, breaking it up with a spoon. Drain off any excess grease.
- Stir in 1 (28-ounce) can crushed tomatoes, 1 (15-ounce) can tomato sauce, 1 teaspoon dried oregano, 1/2 teaspoon dried basil, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Bring to a simmer.
- Reduce heat to low and cook for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, allowing the sauce to thicken slightly.
- Meanwhile, cook 1 pound of spaghetti according to package directions. Drain and serve the meat sauce over the spaghetti. Garnish with freshly grated Parmesan cheese (optional).
