The best tomato sauce, original according to mom’s GDR recipe

Cut the sausage into small pieces and fry in a little margarine. Add the onions, sauté until translucent, and set aside. Meanwhile, cook the pasta. Melt 2 heaped tablespoons of margarine in a saucepan, vigorously stir in 2 tablespoons of flour to form a smooth roux. Then whisk in 2/3 of the broth until almost the desired consistency is reached. Stir in the ketchup and tomato paste. Add a little more broth if needed. Season to taste with salt, pepper, sugar, and lemon juice. Finally, add the sausage and onions and bring back to a boil. Serve with the macaroni. I thank my mom for this childhood memory and for the delicious recipe.
