Martin Scorsese Mother Sauce And Meatballs

Created by dienia b on October 21, 2023

Step 1: Sauce:
Step 2: Sauté sausage and veal in a large pot in olive oil until a little brown.
Step 3: Put aside.
Step 4: Sauté onion and garlic cloves in the same pot until golden.
Step 5: Add tomato paste and 3 paste cans of water to pot.
Step 6: Put tomatoes through a sieve to remove seeds.
Step 7: When sauce starts to bubble, add salt and red pepper to taste and simmer for a while, stirring every now and then from the bottom up.
Step 8: Don't put in any oregano; it keeps repeating on you.
Step 9: Add the large pieces of veal and pork.
Step 10: Cook uncovered until meat comes apart with a fork, about 3 hours, adding water as needed.
Step 11: Meatballs:
Step 12: Mix meatball ingredients together and roll into egg-size balls.
Step 13: Put raw meatballs in the sauce—do not fry them.
Step 14: When meatballs float to the top of the sauce (don't stir until they do), they should be done.
Step 15: Simmer and stir a few more minutes.
Step 16: Remove pieces of veal and pork, slice, and serve as a side dish with meatballs.
