This Sausage and Mushroom Ragu would really have to be one of the tastiest things I have ever made that only has 6 - YES 6 - ingredients! And all in one pot!
The combination of red wine and tomatoes makes such a rich sauce you won't be able to get enough of it - I have served it here with Oven Baked Polenta which is literally BAKED IN THE OVEN!! so you don't need to stir it constantly - yay! And it won't spit at you - double yay!
