3 Garlic cloves (sliced thinly)
1 Tbsp Fennel Seeds
salt and pepper
1 cup Beef or Chicken Stock
2 cup pureed Tomato
6 Sausage Links (cut in to meatball-size pieces)
Parmesan
1 bunch fresh Basil
Bread
Olive Oil
Directions
Place a heavy bottomed pot over medium-high heat and add about 3 tablespoons of olive oil.
Once the oil shimmers and is hot, add the onions and garlic to the pan and toss to coat.
Add the fennel seeds.
Season with a large pinch of salt.
Cook for 8 to 10 minutes, or until the onions just begin to soften
Add the stock, and with a wooden spoon, scrape up the bits from the bottom of the pan.
Add the tomato sauce to the pan and bring to a boil.
Reduce to a simmer and continue to cook for about 5 minutes more.
Add the sausage into the tomato sauce and simmer until fully cooked, about another 10 to 12 minutes.
