KITTENCAL'S ITALIAN TOMATO PASTA SAUCE AND PARMESAN MEATBALLS
There is a method to making the perfect sauce and that is a very long slow cooking time then refrigerate to blend the flavors, a good sauce needs time to "ripen" and develop it's full flavor, this sauce must be made a day or even up 4 days ahead in order for the flavors to intensify, the longer you leave it refrigerated the better it will be --- this recipe makes a fair amount use what you need then freeze the rest in plastic containers for another meal, for a quick thaw just pop in the microwave for about 8 minutes or a little more or thaw in refrigerator overnight, if desired you may partially precook the meatballs on a greased baking sheet in oven before adding to the sauce --- you will love this sauce and you will be making it often! ---- also see my recipe#150207

Steps:
- Prepare the meatball recipe as directed on the recipe; transfer to a plate cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to use (the meatballs may be prepared up to 1 day in advance).
- Drain the diced tomatoes over a strainer.
- Coat bottom of large heavy-bottomed pot with olive oil, heat over medium heat.
- Saute onion with bay leaf, oregano, basil, salt, black pepper and crushed chili peppers for about 5-7 minutes or until the onions are transparent.
- Add in fresh garlic; cook stirring for 2 minutes.
- Add the tomato paste;mix and stir for about 2 minutes or until well combined with the onion mixture.
- Add in the wine; stir well to combine.
- Add the 2 cans crushed tomatoes (can use 3 cans if you are freezing some sauce) and the drained diced tomatoes, stir and bring to a light boil; boil for 5-8 minutes then reduce heat to low.
- Add in uncooked meatballs to the sauce (if you are adding the meatballs uncooked do not stir for 30 minutes or you may run the risk of them falling apart in the simmering sauce).
- Simmer uncovered on low heat for about 3-5 hours (the longer you simmer uncovered the thicker and richer your sauce will be so don't be afraid to simmer even 6 hours!) adding more salt if desired.
- Skim off any fat that might gather on top of sauce.
- Allow to cool to room temperature then refrigerate (with the meatballs in the sauce) a minimum of 1 day or up to 4 days before using.
- Use as much as desired then freeze the rest for another meal, just reheat the sauce on top of the stove or heat in microwave (this will freeze well for up to 6 months).
- Note: if desired, you can bake the meatballs in the oven before adding to the sauce.

Steps:
- Put ground beef in large bowl,
- Add the egg and the bread crumbs.
- Sprinkle garlic powder, oregano, salt/pepper, there is no measuring for that, just sprinkle.
- Mix meat mixture with clean hands.
- Add about 1/4 cup water. The meat mixture will be soft.
- In a large cooking pot, put sauce, start heating up the sauce, have it set on medium.
- Now take about 2 tablespoons of meat and gently roll in ball, gently put each meatball in the sauce, (yes it will be raw) do not fry the meat balls before the sauce).
- Do this until all the meatballs are in the sauce, cook for 1- 3 hours max. The longer the better. Delish!
MELT IN YOUR MOUTH ITALIAN MEATBALLS
This is one of those "I can't make just a little bit" recipes. I make extra meatballs & freeze them for meatball subs or meatballs & bowties, the list is endless. However, this recipe can certainly be halved if you don't care to make so many.
