| 1. Heat olive oil in a very large soup/stew pot and saute onions until soft, salt and pepper to taste. | 2. Add remaining ingredients and stir until well combined. | 3. Simmer the sauce for 3 hours and if you are going to add the meatballs: | 4. Place all meatball ingredients, except olive oil, in a large bowl and mix gently. | 5. Do not over mix the meatballs, they will be tough. | 6. Form and shape either small, 2" diameter balls or larger. | 7. Salt and pepper and set aside. | 8. Now you can either drop the meatballs into the simmering sauce for 3 hours or you can sear them first in the remaining olive oil and then drop them into the sauce. | 9. My Italian friends prefer the fried meatballs. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
