Directions:
Meatballs: Mix in large bowl and make into meatballs. Bake in a 400 ºoven for 30 mins., set aside.

Sauce: In saucepan sauté onion and garlic in EVOO until soft. Mix in tomato paste and cook for 2-3 mins.
Add stewed toms, toms sauce, carrot puree and cook over med heat for 5 mins. Add pork bone and all seasoning and simmer for 3-4 hours. We Italians are very generous with the seasoning, so there are no real measurements to give. It’s a personal taste! Add the meatballs about 1 hour before serving. This is best when made in the morning on a Sunday and allowed to cook until Sunday dinner at Nanas. Or at least that’s how we did it!
