Ground lamb would have been better, I agree. I told mom to get lamb but she got beef.

I feel like that's too much ground beef. I tried messing with ratios and found 1 jar of 24oz and a half a lb of ground beef works best with a 16oz box of pasta. Anything more and it starts to taste like a crappy ground beef dish.

The ground lamb packages they sell at the store are around 1lb, or a little less, and that is what I usually use.

You needed to add:
Onion, mushrooms, basil, and oregano.
Also sauteed the onion, garlic, and mushrooms in olive oil or butter.

It is actually too wet desu. I used less paste as a taste, but I will use the whole 6oz of paste from now on.

I want to help you because you have the best drink known to man (milk served with spaghetti). As you have done this it cannot be argued that while you made mindless sloppa, within you is the spark of the divine.

You want to work on infusing oil into your sauce. Next time take half a cup of olive oil and sauté a handful of chopped garlic, some red pepper flake, and maybe a little bit of onion for two or three minutes. Just be careful not to toast the garlic although sometimes that can be good as well.

After this pour in any tomato product you'd like. If it is uncooked like plain sauce as you described cook it for at least 15 minutes if not 30. Add in some herbs of your liking. Basil, oregano, and a little marjoram is good for me.

If you get the sofrito down you will have a a godlike power to make tomato sauces.

Serve with tall, cool glasses of milk.
