| + | 1/7/26 - Interesting...I remember this recipe being disappointing. Without looking at this recipe, I tried again and what I did was not that far from this recipe. I sautéed garlic, cooked meat in it and set that aside. I used 1.1 pounds of 90/10, Two pounds would have been better! cooked a pile of diced mushrooms (like enough whole button mushrooms to about equal the volume of a pound of ground beef...) in the juice left from the meat and set them aside. Cooked the diced red bell and diced (very large) onion in some oil until the onion was sweet and hit them with probably a TBSP of Italian seasoning and a good bit of chili powder. Combined meat, mushrooms and seasoned onion/bell pepper mix in big pot with one big jar of traditional Ragu. Cooked that down a bit and seasoned it with more chili powder and salt and pepper and pouted it all over the pasta, taste and season and taste and season. Salt, pepper, chili powder until it's good. This is as close I've gotten to the ideal - just should have used 2 lbs of meat (and maybe, therefore, 1.5 jars of sauce). | ||
