Ingredients
- 1 1/2 lbs lean ground beef
- 1 large onion chopped
- 2 carrots peeled and small diced
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon dried basil
- 2 bay leaves
- 1 1/2 cups red wine
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 1-2 teaspoons tomato paste
- 1/2 cup water
- 2 inches parmesan cheese rind
- 1 jar Prepared Tomato Sauce
- salt + pepper
- olive oil
- 1 lb pappardelle fettuccine or any other wide noodle pasta
Instructions
- Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a heavy-bottomed pot over medium heat (I used a dutch oven)
- Add the onions and carrots. Season with salt and cook for 2-3 minutes or until the onions have softened
- Add oregano, basil, and garlic. Cook for 1-2 minutes
- Add the beef and increase the heat
- Cook the beef until browned, make sure you break up the beef into small pieces. Season with salt and pepper
- Drain the excess liquid and add the wine. Cook until the wine has reduced by half.
- Add the bay leaves, tomato paste, water, parmesan cheese rind, and the ragu sauce. Mix well
- When sauce starts to boil, reduce the heat to simmer and cook for 1-2 hours partially covered
- Check it every once in a while to make sure the sauce hasn't dried. If that happens simply add more liquid.
- Check for seasoning and serve with hot pasta and parmesan cheese
- Enjoy!
