In large pot, saute the onions, garlic parsley, and oregano in olive oil 'till onions are soft and transparent.
Step2
Add the cans of crushed tomatos, tomato sauce and tomato paste. Finally add the wine, spices, and 3/4 of the grated cheese and the basil leaves.
Step3
When your sauce starts to bubble, lower the flame to the lowest possible, cover partially & stir often for 3 hours.
Step4
Serve with your favorite pasta.
Tips & Warnings
OPTIONS:
If you're making a meat sauce, follow the above directions, but after the onions are transparent, add 3 Lbs. chopped meat 'till brown, and THEN continue on to the sauce cans etc.
If you're just adding meat to your sauce (meatballs, sausage, braciole, veal chunks, beef chunks etc.) brown the meat in a separate pan and add it to your sauce 1/2 way through (after 1 1/2 hrs)

Good recipe. My sauce uses basil instead of parsley. Also, my daughter-in-law (an Irish gal) moved the family pasta recipe into the 21st century by letting the sauce simmer in a crock pot for a few hours, thereby reducing the need to watch and stir. Mange!
