fat. Season with salt and pepper and remove from pan. Pour off fat

lightly browned, stirring often. 3. Add tomato paste, tomato sauce, wine,
bouillon, sugar, basil, and oregano; mix well. 4. Return meat to pan. Cover
and simmer for 2 1/2 to 3 1/2 hours, or until done. (Or cook in a 325F oven
for same amount of time.) 5. Turn meat once to cook it evenly throughout.
When done, remove meat to a platter and keep warm. Skim excess fat. 6. If
sauce is a little too thin, simmer, uncovered, until it is of desired
thickness. Taste sauce and correct seasoning, if necessary, with salt and
pepper. 7. Meanwhile cook spaghetti and drain. Serve sauce over spaghetti
and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese. 8. Slice meat and spoon a little sauce
over it.
