Instructions
Heat the oil and butter together over low heat in a heavy bottomed pot.
2 tbsp olive oil,
2 tbsp butter
Add the onion, celery, and carrot and cook until wilted.
1 small onion,
1/2 cup celery,
1/2 cup carrot
Add the meat, breaking up the meat with a fork or spoon.
1 lb ground beef
Season the meat with salt and pepper, add the wine and allow the wine to cook completely down to almost dry before adding the tomatoes and water.
Salt,
1/2 cup dry white wine,
2 cups plum tomatoes,
1 cup water
Adjust the heat to a slow simmer and, being careful not to cook too rapidly, cook the meat and tomato sauce for 3 to 4 hours.
Stir frequently to avoid scorching the bottom.
When the sauce has cooked for several hours and the excess water has cooked off, remove from the heat and allow to cool before assembling the lasagna.
