Three small onions!” If you want to make the renowned sauce from Goodfellas, you’ll need:

* 3 cloves garlic, cut paper-thin

* 3 onions chopped

* 1 lb each sweet and spicy Italian sausage

* 1 beef shank

* 1 lb veal neck bones with meat attached

* 1 glug red wine

* 3 cans of San Marzano tomatoes

* 1 tbsp tomato paste

* 2 large stems fresh basil

* 1 large carrot, peeled and cut into big chunks

* 1 lb meatballs

* Olive oil or butter for finishing

* Parmesan cheese

In a large stock pot, brown the sausage, beef, and veal in batches until well browned and drippings have formed on the bottom of the pot. Add onions, sauté until translucent, add tomato paste and garlic and sauté until fragrant.

Keep stirring

Put the cocaine in little plastic backs

Deglaze with wine, scraping up the bottom of the pot. Add tomatoes, crushing with a spoon (or processing with a food mill if desired), and return the meat to the pot.

Get the coke and the guns put them in your trunk of the car

Add basil and carrot, and bring to a bare simmer. Let sauce simmer for hours, stirring and scraping the bottom occasionally.

Take a big hit of cocaine but not to much

Add meatballs during the final hour of cooking and simmer until desired consistency is reached.

Let your brother do the steering ,go sell your guns and be back on time for dinner
