Ingredients
- Sausage Meat Sauce:
- 2 tbsp. olive oil
- 1 lb. sweet Italian sausages, removed from casings
- 1 lb. spicy Italian sausages, removed from casings
- 1 small yellow onion, finely chopped
- 1 medium carrot, peeled and finely chopped
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tbsp. tomato paste
- Two 28-oz. cans whole plum tomatoes
- One 6-inch rosemary sprig
- 1 lb. pasta, such as bucatini or spaghetti
Directions
-
Heat a 4- to 5-quart saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the oil. When it shimmers, add the sausage and brown, breaking it up into small pieces, just until cooked through, about 5 minutes.
-
Add the onions, carrots, garlic and tomato paste and cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables begin to soften, about 3 minutes. Stir in the tomatoes and rosemary, breaking up the tomatoes with the side of a spoon or with scissors. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat, partially cover, and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens and reduces slightly, about 30 minutes.
-
Meanwhile, bring a large pot of water to a boil. When the sauce has 10 minutes left, add the pasta to the boiling water and cook until al dente.
-
Drain the pasta, toss with 4 cups of the sauce and serve.
