Fat Chef Meat Sauce Repair Kit

Updated: Feb 12, 2022

This is a repair kit for low-budget store bought meat sauce. Makes a delicious and versatile sauce for Pasta, Dipping or Topping for your favorite dishes. Greatly improves flavor for those discount generic sauces found on every Grocery Store shelf.


Ingredients

  • 1 - 32 ounce Jar of Cheap Generic Meat Sauce or Red Spaghetti Sauce

  • 1/2 Teaspoon Dried Oregano

  • 1/2 Teaspoon Dried Basil

  • 1/2 Tablespoon Garlic Powder

  • 1/2 Teaspoon Red Pepper Flakes

  • 1 Teaspoon Coarse Ground Kosher Salt

  • 1 Teaspoon Coarse Ground Peppercorn

  • 1 Heaping tablespoon of Sugar

  • 1/3 Cup of Dark Red Wine - i.e. Burgundy or Merlot (See Pro tip #1).

  • (Optional) 1 can of Rotel for tomato chunks

Directions

  1. Mix above ingredients in a sauce pot and simmer prior to use.

Pro Tip

  1. Most store bought Red Pasta Sauce is made too thick. After emptying jar, add 1/3 cup of Dark Red Wine to jar and replace lid. Shake vigorously then add to the sauce.

  2. Never add sauce to cooked pasta and mix in a pot. Always serve sauce on top of plated pasta.

  3. For added flavor and texture, add Chopped Mushrooms and Chopped Onions to sauce.
