Directions:Heat olive oil over medium heat. Sauté the onion until translucent. Add the garlic and continue sauté for 2 minutes. Add the tomato sauce then an equal amount of water to the sauce. Increase heat and bring to a boil. Add salt and pepper and hamburger while boiling. Decrease heat until the sauce has a light boil. Add the sugar and stir frequently. Continue to simmer for 3 to 4 hours - stirring frequently. The sauce is ready when the sauce is thick.
Although the sugar sweetens the sauce - you can add additional salt if the sauce tastes bitter. |

Notes: The key to the perfect sauce is to let it simmer for 3 to 4 hours. This is not a sauce that can be rushed. This recipe will make enough to serve a large number of guests and/or jar and freeze for future meals. Making extra sauce allows for everyone to sample prior to dinner - a great memory of dipping fresh bread into the sauce!
