Leonas Spaghetti Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• Cook the pasta in a large pot of boiling salted water until tender but still firm to the bite, stirring occasionally, about 8 minutes. Meanwhile, whisk the oil, Parmesan, and lemon juice in a large bowl to blend.
• Drain the pasta, reserving 1 cup of the cooking liquid. Toss the pasta with the lemon sauce, and the reserved cooking liquid, adding 1/4 cup at a time as needed to moisten. Season with salt and pepper. Garnish with lemon zest and chopped basil.

Steps:

• Put all ingredients (except the meat and onions) in a large pot.
• Stir well and bring to a boil. Continue to stir occasionally until it boils, so the cinnamon is incorporated.
• Reduce to a simmer and cook for three to four hours. Continue to stir occasionally. You can speed up this step, if you leave it on a boil, but I think the flavour improves if it is not rushed.
• The sauce needs to cook until it bloops-namely until the sauce splashes out of the pot and makes a bit of a mess on the stove top (or wall in my case).
• Remove and discard the chillies and bay leaves.
• What to do next if you intend to serve this sauce over pasta. Saute the beef until it loses most of its pink colouring, then add the onions and saute until tender.
• Drain off any fat.
• Add meat mixture to cooked sauce and stir well.
• Heat the mixture well, then ladle over pasta.

Steps:

• Fry bacon till almost done, add onions, garlic, anchovy paste if using and chili flakes.
• Saute till onions are transparent.
• Then combine all ingrediants in a large pot.
• Simmer for approx 30 mins to 1 hour.
• Taste and adjust seasonings, we like ours to be on the spicy side.
