Directions:
1. Cover the bottom of a pan with oil. Sauté onion over medium heat until the onion becomes translucent.
2. Add cooked meat, if using, and garlic; sauté, lowering heat, for a few more minutes.
3. Add crushed tomatoes and paste, wine, and spices and stir,
4. Simmer 20 minutes to 2 hours. You will get a slightly different taste if you simmer 2 hours, but 20 minutes is also good. If you do simmer longer, sometimes you need to add a little water.
