    Use it as a starter for the next batch of sauce, but don't add any oregano?

    Otherwise can you tone it down by adding a bit more of the wet ingredients? eg if it is a tomato sauce or a bolognaise add an extra tin of tomatoes?

    HI THERE

    Do you have any philladelphia or the cheap alternative? if so throw a dollop in,,, it should take the edge off of it for you ....
    failing that i would try a couple of lamb or beef stock cubes...
    hope it helps ...
