Oma's Sauce

This is one of my favorite pasta dishes - with some fresh parmagiano on top...mmm. The best is with plain spaghetti.

Ingredients

1 Tablespoon olive oil

1 pound ground beef

1 medium onion chopped fine

1 small Italian (cubanelle) pepper chopped in thin strips

1 tablespoon hungarian paprika

1 8 ounce can tomato sauce

1/2 cup water

Salt and pepper to taste

Directions:

Sautee onion and 1/2 of the pepper in the oil over medium heat until onion is opaque. Add beef an cook until heated through. Add rest of pepper and the paprika and cook for 3-4 minutes being careful not to burn the paprika.

Add tomato sauce, water, salt and pepper and cook for 45-60 minutes to meld flavors. Server over spaghetti.
