The original recipe called for canned tuna; I substituted shrimp.
INGREDIENTS
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 medium onion, finely diced
- 1 bag medium shrimp
- 1 2lb can crushed tomatoes
- 1 can tomato sauce
- 1 large can tomato paste
- 1/2 tsp. salt
- 1/8 tsp. pepper
- 1/2 tsp. sugar
- 1 lb. spaghetti cooked
- 1 can tomato juice, or water (depending on thickness)
DIRECTIONS
- Heat oil in a pan; add garlic and onion. Brown over moderate heat, stirring frequently.
- Add tomatoes, tomato sauce, tomato paste, salt, pepper, and sugar. Bring to a boil. Cover the saucepan and simmer for 2 hours, stirring occasionally.
- Add the shrimp; if the mixture is too thick, add tomato juice or water, 1/2 cup at a time.
- Cook spaghetti in boiling salted water until tender. 10-12 minutes.
- Drain spaghetti and plate. Cover spaghetti with sauce and serve with grated Parmesan cheese.
Serve with a salad and hard bread for a complete meal.
