Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Sauté the Vegetables

    In a large pot over medium heat, add olive oil. Once hot, add the chopped onion, carrot, and celery. Sauté until softened, about 5-7 minutes.

  2. 2

    Brown the Meat

    Increase the heat to medium-high and add the ground beef and ground pork. Cook until browned, breaking it apart with a spoon, about 10 minutes.

  3. 3

    Add Garlic and Seasonings

    Stir in the minced garlic, oregano, basil, salt, and black pepper. Cook for another minute until fragrant.

  4. 4

    Deglaze with Wine

    Pour in the red wine, scraping the bottom of the pot to release any browned bits. Allow the wine to simmer for 5 minutes.

  5. 5

    Add Tomatoes and Simmer

    Stir in the diced tomatoes and tomato paste. Reduce heat to low and let the sauce simmer uncovered for at least 1 hour, stirring occasionally.

  6. 6

    Finish with Milk

    After simmering, stir in the milk and allow to simmer for an additional 30 minutes. Adjust seasoning if needed.
