Spaghetti Bolognese

Alberto Rossi's Spaghetti Bolognese

Recipe for 4 people

Ingredients

300 g Minced Beef
150 g Pancetta, diced then chopped
50 g Finely diced carrot
50 g Finely diced Celery
50 g Chopped Onion
300 g Peeled Tomatoes
½ Glass Red Wine
Chicken Stock
Salt and Pepper

Instructions

1. In a pot, over medium fire, add the oil and once hot, add the pancetta; stir for a couple of minutes then add all the vegetables and cook for about 5 minutes.
2. Once the vegetables are nice and shiny, put in the beef mince.
3. With the help of a wooden spoon, keep mixing it and break the meat so no lumps are visible.
4. When the meat is all brown, deglaze with the red wine, add the peeled tomatoes, some salt and pepper and about 400 ml of Chicken stock.
5. Cook for about 2 hours at low heat, if you have a lid for the pot, use it. All the fat should be at the top of the sauce.
6. Taste it, add salt if needed.
7. You can serve it with any pasta shape and if you feel like cooking even more, do a Lasagna!
