Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Sauté Vegetables

    In a large skillet or saucepan, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion, carrot, and celery. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are softened.

  2. 2

    Add Garlic and Beef

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

  3. 3

    Incorporate Liquids

    Pour in the red wine and allow it to simmer for a few minutes until it reduces slightly. Then, add the crushed tomatoes, tomato paste, milk, bay leaf, oregano, and basil. Stir well to combine.

  4. 4

    Season and Simmer

    Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Bring the sauce to a gentle boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover and let it simmer for at least 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Remove the bay leaf before serving. Serve the Bolognese sauce over cooked pasta of your choice, garnished with grated Parmesan cheese if desired.
