Ingredients
250 g de tomates concassés ou de sauce tomate
700 g ground beef
300 g ground pork (you may replace with: Italian sausage, chicken or beef) *
1 Tbs Extra Virgin Olive Oil **
1 carrot
1 bunch of parsley (around 12 stems)
1 onion
1 glass of dry white wine ***
salt and pepper
Method
Chop the onion, carrot and parsley and put the parsley aside;
In a saucepan heat up the olive oil, then sauté your onion and carrot until lightly browned;
Add the minced meat and cook for a few minutes while stirring so you don't get big chunks of meat in your final sauce;
Pour in the white wine and occasionally stir until it evaporates;
Add in crushed tomatoes along with salt and pepper to taste, then let it simmer on low heat for about two hours stirring occasionally. Make sure your sauce does not get too dry and add in a little water if you see all juices have evaporated;
When your sauce is almost ready, add in your chopped parsley and let simmer for a couple more minutes.
Your bolognese sauce is ready for you to add it to your favorite pasta dish!
* If you skip the pork the sauce won't be as tender and juicy but it will still be very tasty, don't worry!
** If you are trying to reduce your fat intake, you can skip it if and cook your meat in a no-stick pan
*** You can replace this with beef or vegetable stock
