    I prefer the meat added in beforehand because it gives the sauce more flavour.

    If using fresh garlic I suggest one or 2 slivers depending on how garlicy you want it.

12. 12

    The longer the sauce simmers the better it gets.

    If you have literally all day use 5-10 fresh tomatoes and mash them well and drain the water as best you can and use the recipe above.

    It will take a few hours to make the sauce as desired.

    Paste will reduce the time to about 20 mins total and will produce a very thick sauce.

    puree will take about 30-45 minutes and the sauce will be less thick than the paste but will make a nice thick sauce.
