Liquids and Seasoning

Method

Base and Aromatics

  1. 1

    In a large heavy-bottomed pot, heat olive oil over medium heat until shimmering. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic; sauté until translucent and fragrant, about 5-7 minutes.

Protein and Mushrooms

  1. 2

    Add the ground beef to the pot. Cook, breaking it apart with a spoon, until evenly browned and no pink remains, about 6-8 minutes.

  2. 3

    Stir in the sliced mushrooms and tomato paste. Cook for 3-4 minutes until the mushrooms soften and the paste coats them.

Liquids and Seasoning

  1. 4

    Pour in the red wine to deglaze the pot, scraping up any browned bits. Let the wine simmer and reduce by half, about 2-3 minutes.

  2. 5

    Add the crushed tomatoes and beef stock. Stir to combine, bring to a gentle simmer.

  3. 6

    Season with salt, black pepper, and dried thyme. Stir well and adjust seasoning to taste. Let the ragout simmer gently, uncovered, for 25-30 minutes until thickened and flavors meld.
