A delightful twist on the classic Bolognese, this recipe brings out rich flavors with a touch of elegance.
Melt the butter in a large saucepan over medium heat.
Ensure the butter doesn't brown to maintain a smooth flavor.
Add the chopped onion, carrot, and minced garlic to the saucepan and sauté until softened.
Stir frequently to prevent the garlic from burning.
Add the ground beef to the saucepan and cook until browned.
Break up the beef into small pieces for even cooking.
Pour in the red wine and stir in the tomato paste, letting it simmer for a few minutes.
Scrape the bottom of the pan to incorporate all the flavors.
Add the beef broth and chopped tomatoes, then bring to a gentle simmer.
Use fresh, ripe tomatoes for the best flavor.
Simmer the sauce for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Cover partially to prevent splattering while allowing the sauce to reduce.
Cook the spaghetti according to package instructions, then toss with a bit of butter.
Reserve some pasta water to adjust the sauce consistency if needed.
Serve the sauce over the pasta and garnish with grated parmesan cheese.
Add a sprinkle of fresh parsley for a pop of color.
