INGREDIENTS:

4 tablespoons olive oil
8 cloves garlic
1 large onion
1 large green bell pepper
8 ounces fresh mushrooms
1 can (6 pound 9 ounce size) tomato puree*
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
1/2 cup dried oregano
1 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
2 teaspoons salt
3/4 teaspoon black pepper
3 tablespoons sugar
2 teaspoons cinnamon
1/8 cup basil
1 teaspoon garlic powder

DIRECTIONS:

Mince garlic; chop onion, pepper, and mushrooms. Saute garlic in hot olive oil briefly, then add onion, pepper, and mushrooms and continue to saute. Add tomato puree and stir well. Add spices. (If you like, add a little less than the full amount of each spice at first to ensure that you don't add more of a particular spice than you like.)

Simmer at least one hour, then taste sauce to test the spices and add more as necessary. The sauce must be simmered for at least three hours, but is best when simmered for several hours. Serve over angel hair pasta or capellini.

* Or the equivalent amount in smaller cans. All seasonings are measured based on the warehouse-sized can of tomato puree.
