Method

  • 1. Heat the oil in a large frying pan (skillet).
  • Add the onions and cook for 3 minutes.

  • 2. Add the garlic, carrot, celery and pancetta or bacon and saute for 3-4 minutes or until just beginning to brown.

  • 3. Add the beef and cook over a high heat for another 3 minutes or until all of the meat is brown.

  • 4. Stir in the tomatoes, oreqano and red wine and bring to the boil. Reduce the heat and leave to simmer for about 45 minutes.

  • 5. Stir in the tomato puree (paste) and season with salt and pepper.

  • 6. Cook the spaghetti in a pan of boiling water for 8 - 10 minutes until tender, but still has 'bite'. Drain thoroughly.

  • 7. Transfer the spaghetti to a serving plate and pour over the bolognese sauce. Toss to mix well and serve hot.

    • Tips

    • Try adding 25 g (1 oz) dried porcini, soaked for 10 minutes in 2 tablespoons of warm water, to the bolognese sauce in step 4, if you wish.
