Method

Pasta Preparation

  1. 1

    Cook the Spaghetti

    Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add spaghetti and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside, reserving a little pasta water.

Bolognese Sauce Preparation

  1. 2

    Sauté the Vegetables

    In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add diced onion, minced garlic, chopped carrot, and chopped celery. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes until vegetables are soft.

  2. 3

    Cook the Ground Beef

    Add the ground beef to the skillet and cook until browned, breaking it apart with a spoon. This should take about 8-10 minutes.

  3. 4

    Add Liquids and Seasonings

    Pour in the red wine and let it simmer for a couple of minutes until reduced. Then, add the crushed tomatoes, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper. Stir everything together.

  4. 5

    Simmer the Sauce

    Reduce the heat to low and let the sauce simmer for about 20-30 minutes, stirring occasionally. Adjust seasoning if necessary.

Parmesan Sauce Preparation

  1. 6

    Make the Roux

    In a saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the all-purpose flour and whisk continuously for about 2 minutes until it turns a light golden color.

  2. 7

    Add Milk

    Slowly pour in the milk while whisking to prevent lumps. Continue to whisk until the sauce thickens, about 5-7 minutes.

  3. 8

    Incorporate Parmesan

    Once thickened, remove from heat and stir in the grated Parmesan cheese, salt, and black pepper until fully melted and combined.

Assembly

  1. 9

    Combine and Serve

    In serving bowls, combine the cooked spaghetti with the Bolognese sauce. Drizzle with Parmesan sauce on top. Serve immediately and enjoy!
