Steps:
- Brown meat and Italian sausage (break it up as you stir it. You may want to heat up a little olive oil (about 2 minutes) before adding the meat...)
- Add chopped onions to the meat mixture and continue cooking. Stir occasionally until onions are softened.
- Next, add your diced tomatoes, tomato paste, and tomato sauce.
- Next, mix in the spices, sugar, and garlic.
- Once your sauce is cooking (bring to a boil), add your wine and water.
- Simmer on low (stir often) for an hour.
- Optional: Let it simmer for an additional 3-4 hours, just to let the flavors combine even more.

Steps:
- In a large pan heat the extra virgin olive oil over medium heat until just shimmering. Add the onions, garlic, and finely grated carrots. Cook for about 5 minutes, stirring regularly until softened.
- Add the crushed tomatoes and about 1/2 cup water. Add a generous pinch of salt and pepper. Stir in oregano, paprika, crushed pepper flakes, if using. Finally, stir in the fresh basil and parsley.
- Bring the sauce to a boil, then turn heat to low. Cover and let simmer for about 15 to 20 minutes. Check partway through, and if you feel the sauce is too thick, you can add a bit more water (preferably some of your pasta cooking water). When sauce is ready, throw in more fresh basil, if you like.
- If serving for dinner, add cooked pasta of your choice to the sauce. Mix to combine and let the pasta cook in the sauce over low heat for about 5 minutes.

NANNY'S SPAGHETTI SAUCE
This is my Sicilian great-grandmother's recipe. I've never tasted better. Serve with meatballs and Italian sausage; it's also terrific as a marinara sauce.

NANCY'S SPAGHETTI
The spaghetti recipe is just one I made up, but the meatballs was a recipe I believe I got from Country Magazine. I make them up and freeze to use when I'm ready for them. They can be used for sweet and sour meatballs also.

Steps:

- Combine the bread with the milk in a large bowl. Let soften for about 1 minute, then mash to a paste with a fork. Add the beef, pork, egg, Worcestershire, granulated garlic, granulated onion, 2 tablespoons pecorino, 2 teaspoons salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Mix until well blended. Form into twelve 2-inch balls (about 1/4 cup each) and place on a plate or tray.
- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Sear the meatballs on all sides until a crust forms, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer to a baking dish.
- Bake until cooked through, 20 to 25 minutes.
- For the pasta and sauce: In a large pot, cook the spaghetti according to package directions. Drain and set aside.
- To a pan over medium heat, add the olive oil, tomatoes, broth, butter, and basil and parsley. Simmer until the tomatoes are soft, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the pecorino to help thicken the sauce, and season with a pinch of salt and pepper. Stir in the cooked pasta and top with the meatballs. Garnish with some more pecorino and basil-parsley mix.
