Description

This Italian main features Beef Roast 2 Bay Leaves, Oregano Leaves 1 c Red Wine, Dry, Basil Leaves 1 teaspoon Celery Salt, Salt 1/2 c Ripe Olives. It delivers rich, cheesy flavor, hearty, protein-packed satisfaction. Great for weeknight dinners or when you want something satisfying for the whole family. Simple to make with ingredients you likely already have on hand, this is a recipe you will come back to again and again.

Directions

  1. Long, slow simmering of meat and herbs produces the base for this incomparable sauce.
  2. Season roast with salt; dredge with flour.
  3. In Dutch oven brown slowly on all sides in hot olive oil.
  4. Add hot water, cover and cook slowly 3 hours or until meat almost falls apart.
  5. Tear into small pieces with fork.
  6. Add remaining ingredients except spaghetti and cheese.
  7. Cover tightly and simmer 2 hours longer, stirring occasionally.
  8. Remove cover and continue cooking until sauce thickens to desired consistency.
  9. Cook spaghetti following directions on package, allowing 1 pound for four servings.
  10. Ladle sauce over spaghetti.
  11. Top with cheese.
  12. Freeze extra sauce in half-pint, pint or quart freezer jars and use as needed.
  13. I prefer to use rump roast, but chuck or round is acceptable.
