  Olio di Arrosto: Heat the oil with all the other ingredients and cook,
  stirring, for 4 to 5 minutes or until garlic is quite brown. Add a few
  drops of water or white to produce the steam which will bind the
  flavours to the oil. Remove from heat and let cool. Discard the
  garlic and fresh herbs by simply lifting them with a fork. If you
  used dried herbs, strain the oil, but be sure that the salt and
  pepper are not removed. Note: You may add a shank bone or any other
  bone for a more authentic flavor. YIELDS: 1/2 CUP Meat Sauce: (Sugo
  di Carne) Place the olio di arrosto in a large saucepan. Chop onion,
  carrot, celery, and parsley together, very fine. Add to saucepan,
  with oil and lightly brown for 2 to 3 minutes, stirring occasionally.
   Add meat and brown thoroughly, stirring frequently.
   Add wine and raise the heat to let the wine evaporate completely.
   Add the tomato paste and cook over high heat for 1 to 2 minutes,
  stirring frequently.
   Add beef stock or water and cook, covered, over very low heat for
  1/2 hour to 45 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add salt to taste.
  Sauce should be nice and thick, if it looks too liquid, cook it a few
  minutes longer till it loses its excess liquid. YIELDS
