Aunt Ochy's Ragu Sauce

Jeff's Aunt Ochy makes a fabulous Ragu sauce, so I had to post it!

2 white onions, chopped finely

4 large carrots, chopped finely

10 garlic cloves, minced

8 tablespoons of butter

12 tablespoons extra light olive oil

salt and pepper to taste

1 cup of white wine, something you would actually drink

2 pounds of ground Veal

2 pounds of ground Beef, I used 93/7

4 cups of Beef broth

3 large cans of crushed tomatoes

4 to 6 tablespoons of tomato paste

crushed red pepper flakes to taste

In a deep pan add the butter and olive oil, then add the onions, carrots and garlic - cook on medium/low to low heat until everything is tender, then add salt and pepper. Then add white wine and keep on low heat!

In a separate pan cook the ground Veal and ground Beef until cooked through. Then drain the meat! Then add Beef broth to pan and put back in the meats, let that all blend together.

Then add the meat and Beef broth to the vegetable pan and cook on low for 30 minutes. Then add the crushed tomatoes and cook 45 minutes to 1 hour on medium/low heat. Then add the tomato paste and cook for another 1 1/2 to 2 hours, then take the lid off and cook for a little bit longer so there isn't any liquid in the pan/pot.

Add the crushed red pepper flakes and stir all together!

Enjoy!!!!!!!
