Step 1

In a casserole (cast iron if you have it) or large saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. When the butter begins to foam, add the diced onion and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Sauté until the onion becomes translucent.

Step 2

Add diced celery and carrot and sauté for about two minutes, until slightly softened.

Step 3

Add chopped garlic and sauté for about a minute, or until fragrant.

Step 4

Add ground beef and pepper. Brown the beef using a wooden spoon to loosen it as it cooks.

Step 5

Once the beef has browned, add the water, wine, and the remaining half teaspoon of salt. Stir occasionally and simmer until the liquid has evaporated completely.

Step 6

Stir in the chopped tomatoes, making sure to mix well. When tomatoes come to a boil, reduce the heat.

Step 7

Let the sauce cook, uncovered, for about two and a half hours. Stir occasionally. If the sauce seems to be drying out, you can add half a cup of water. Taste and adjust salt and pepper at the end of cooking.
