Homemade Argentine Spaghetti Sauce (Tuco Italiano)

From a website that is no longer available

2 lb ground beef

2 T. olive oil

4 hot italian sausages

2 medium onions, chopped

2 carrots, grated

1 green pepper, thinly sliced

1 red pepper, thinly sliced

6 cloves garlic, minced

1 stick of celery

3 T. dried oregano

1 T. dried

2 t. salt

1 t. black pepper

1 c. dry white wine

1/2 c. tomato paste

2 c. tomato puree

1 T. sugar

1. Heat oil in a pot, and brown the sausages in it. Set aside to cool and slice into bite sized pieces.
2. Brown the onions. When they become translucent, add the ground beef and brown. Drain off the fat, and set it aside.
3. Cook the carrots, celery, and peppers in the same pot. When they are tender, add the garlic and ground beef.
4. Add the white wine and all the tomato products. Bring to a simmer.
5. Add the seasoning and sugar. Adjust seasoning as desired. (I like to add extra oregano, salt, and pepper.)
6. Simmer for 45 min. Add sausages in the last 5 minutes of cooking to heat through.
7. Serve on your favorite pasta.
