GREEK STYLE ...Hamburger and Hot Dog Chili Sauce

“Greek Style”
Hamburger & Hot dog Chili Sauce

2- Tbs. Cooking Oil
1- Medium Size Onion ( *Chopped Fine )
1- Clove Garlic minced finely.
1-½ Lb. Chopped Meat ( Ground Three Times if You Can Get It )
1-½- Tbs. Cumin Powder
2- Tbs. Oregano Powder (alternate = Dried / & Ground in mortar and pestle )
¼ -tsp. Cayenne Hot pepper
1- Tbs. Red Paprika (Hungarian Preferred)
2- Tbs. Chili Powder (* Not the Hot )
1- Can Tomato Sauce ( 15 or 16 oz. size )
3- Cups Water* ( L@@Ks like a lot, but needed )
Salt & Pepper to Taste …. ( *I use Kosher Salt )
################################################
Brown Meat in Oil..with Onions till browned. (Drain off Excess Fat)

Add all the other ingredients ; Cook over low heat until thickened. ( I place it on a heat diffuser so the bottom won’t burn; even though it is on low flame.)

* It takes a while to thicken, and patience is worth it with this recipe. ( Cheating, by adding less water is a No- No with this one) [Tried it, been there, and not a good idea] The flavors take time to meld and marry into the meat. Stir Frequently so as not to burn.


Enjoy! ……..[ Recipe.. From Jim & Tina’s Kitchen ]"

Thank you SO much, Jimmy! I plopped it in Word and saved it; will go back later and format it like I do all my recipes. Wanted to get it saved right away since you were kind enough to re-post for me. Many thanks.
