1/4 tsp. pepper
4 cans (8 oz. each) tomato sauce

Brown sausage and beef in deep, heavy saucepan. If sausage is not seasoned with anise, add seed. Add next 4 ingredients and bring to a boil. Simmer uncovered about 1 1/2 hours. Add basil and simmer 1/2 hour longer.

Cut rolls in half lengthwise. Cover inside top half with 2 slices of mozzarella cheese, sprinkle with paprika. Broil until cheese melts. Spread meat mixture on bottom half of rolls. Put halves together and serve.
