Fettuccini Bolognese Recipe

Preparation

1. 1

   Cook the Fettuccini

   In a large pot of salted boiling water, cook the fettuccini 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, carrot, and celery, and cook until softened, about 5-7 minutes. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute.

3. 3

   Add Meat and Wine

   Add the ground beef and ground pork to the skillet, breaking it up with a spoon. Cook until browned, about 8-10 minutes. Pour in the red wine and simmer for 2-3 minutes until reduced slightly.

4. 4

   Incorporate Tomatoes

   Stir in the crushed tomatoes and tomato paste. Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Reduce heat to low and let the sauce simmer for 20-30 minutes, stirring occasionally.

5. 5

   Combine Pasta and Sauce

   Add the cooked fettuccini to the sauce and toss to combine, ensuring the pasta is well-coated with the sauce.
