Spaghetti Sauce For Mishloach Manot

A wonderful sauce recipe whether you are going to be making it for Mishloach Manos or not. Yields 6 1/2-liter jars.

I included the following poem with my Mishloach Manos:

A Freilechen Purim

From the Kafra bunch

Now sit and relax

We’ve brought you some lunch

A few quick instructions

For you to employ

Just three easy steps

And this dish you’ll enjoy

First cook up the pasta

And strain when it’s done

Then just add the sauce

And mix till its warm

Place into bowls

And sprinkle with cheese

Who knew that this dish

Is sure to please.

Directions

1. In a very large pot, melt butter, add garlic and sauté until translucent. Stir in flour and mix.

2. Whisk in milk and bring to a boil for three minutes, stir constantly until smooth.

3. Add in tomato paste, crushed tomatoes, salt and pepper. Stir until smooth and cook for five minutes. Add basil, chopped green onions and remove from flame. Cool before spooning into jar.

Notes: I used a funnel when pouring the sauce into the jars to help keep things neater.
