Kuma's* Sweet and Easy Spaghetti Sauce
1 large can tomato sauce (PW prefers Hunts)
1 medium onion, finely chopped
paprika (1 vague tsp)
salt (1 similarly proportioned tsp)
flour (let's say 3 tbsp, for kicks)
sugar (1 tbsp)
oil (PW always uses Mazola for cooking)
Saute finely-chopped onion in oil. When mid-way done (on their way to being brown), add 3 big spoons of flour (and more oil), then saute till lightly brown. Add approximately 1 teaspoon paprika. Brown slightly (20 seconds, let's say), then add tomato sauce and 1/2 can of water (swirling to get all the goodies from the container, very Peasant Woman!).
Slowly bring to a boil. (Keep mixing so the flour doesn't stick to the bottom and become chunky--very un-Peasant Woman. In fact, you would probably be permanently barred from Peasant Woman's kitchen were this to occur.) Add more water as needed (if it becomes too thick), such as another 1/2 can of water, then go from there.
Add 1 teaspoon salt and 1 tablespoon sugar.
Cook for 30 minutes.
Add to over-cooked spaghetti. Enjoy!
