Bolo Rosa Recipe

Cooking Instructions

1. 1

   Prepare the Pasta

   Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the bucatini or rigatoni pasta and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

2. 2

   Make the Bolognese Sauce

   In a large skillet or saucepan, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion, garlic, carrot, and celery. Sauté until softened, about 5 minutes.

3. 3

   Add Meat

   Add the ground beef and ground pork to the skillet. Cook until browned, breaking it apart with a spoon, about 8-10 minutes.

4. 4

   Deglaze the Pan

   Pour in the red wine, scraping the bottom of the pan to release any browned bits. Let it simmer for 2-3 minutes.

5. 5

   Add Tomatoes and Season

   Stir in the crushed tomatoes, tomato paste, salt, and black pepper. Reduce the heat and let the sauce simmer for 20 minutes.

6. 6

   Make it Creamy

   Lower the heat and stir in the heavy cream, mixing well. Allow it to simmer for another 5 minutes.

7. 7

   Combine Pasta and Sauce

   Add the cooked pasta to the sauce, tossing to coat. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes to heat through.

8. 8

   Serve

   Serve the Bolo Rosa hot, garnished with grated Parmesan cheese and chopped fresh basil.
