Introduction

This is the base of what Dad used to make growing up. Something was always added such as mushrooms etc. But this is the starting point from my memory.

Ingredients

    1 stick of butter
    1 T olive oil
    1 med onion chopped
    1 sprig rosemary
    1 can tomato paste
    one glass of red wine typically thrown in

Directions

Heat oil and butter together. Chop onion while this is heating. Cook onion until tender. Add rosemary and stir. Add tomato paste and 2-3 cans of water. Stir together and simmer for about 30-45 min. Add wine at some point to thin the sauce. Serve over pasta.

My guess is this would make 8 main course servings depending on how much or little you want on your pasta.
