Instructies

Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium high heat. Add ground beef and season with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Saute until beef is no longer pink. Remove from heat, leaving fat in pot, and set beef aside.

Add onion to pot and saute until softened, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and saute for another minute.

Pour red wine into pan and let cook for 1 minute, scraping up any burned pieces of food on the pot of the pot.

Add crushed tomatoes, tomato sauce, parsley, mint, oregano, cinnamon, all spice, cloves, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Stir well. Reduce heat to a gentle simmer and let simmer, uncovered, until sauce is very thick, about 1 hour.

While sauce is simmering, cook noodles according to package directions.

When sauce has finished simmering, stir in butter and sugar until both are well incorporated.

Serve sauce over pasta.
