1 Remove the sausage from the casings. Chop the meat finely.
2 In a large pot, heat the oil over medium heat. Add the sausage meat and the garlic. Cook, stirring frequently, until the pork is lightly browned, about 10 minutes. Add the wine and bring to a simmer. Cook until most of the wine evaporates.
3 Stir in the tomatoes and salt to taste. Bring to a simmer. Reduce the heat to low. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the sauce is thickened, about 1 hour and 30 minutes. Stir in the basil just before serving. Serve hot. Can be made ahead and stored in a tightly sealed container in the refrigerator up to 3 days or in the freezer up to 2 months.
