FETTUCCINE BOLOGNESE RECIPE RECIPES

Steps:

• Cook the pasta in a large pan of boiling salted water for 10-12 minutes, until al dente. Meanwhile, put the cream in a saucepan with the butter and a little grated nutmeg and warm through gently. Stir in the Parmesan.
• Drain the pasta, reserving about three tablespoons of the cooking water, then tip it straight into the cream sauce. Add as much of the reserved water as needed to loosen the consistency of the sauce to your liking. Mix gently, adding plenty of freshly ground black pepper. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Heat a large saucepan over a medium heat. Add a tablespoon of olive oil and once hot add the beef mince and a pinch of salt and pepper. Cook the mince until well browned over a medium-high heat (be careful not to burn the mince. It just needs to be a dark brown colour). Once browned, transfer the mince to a bowl and set aside.
• Add another tablespoon of oil to the saucepan you browned the mince in and turn the heat to medium. Add the onions and a pinch of salt and fry gently for 5-6 minutes, or until softened and translucent. Add the garlic and cook for another 2 minutes. Add the grated carrot then pour the mince and any juices in the bowl back into the saucepan.
• Add the tomatoes to the pan and stir well to mix. Pour in the stock, bring to a simmer and then reduce the temperature to simmer gently for 45 minutes, or until the sauce is thick and rich. Taste and adjust the seasoning as necessary.
• When ready to cook the spaghetti, heat a large saucepan of water and add a pinch of salt. Cook according to the packet instructions. Once the spaghetti is cooked through, drain and add to the pan with the bolognese sauce. Mix well and serve.
