How to Make Bolognese Made By A Polish Girl
- Heat olive oil in a large, heavy-bottomed pot over medium heat. Add garlic, onion, bell pepper, carrot, celery, and mushrooms. Cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 5 minutes.
- Pour in Chianti wine and simmer for 5 minutes, allowing the alcohol to evaporate.
- Add half of the chopped parsley, ground beef, and Italian sausage. Break up the meat with a spoon and cook, stirring frequently, until browned.
- Stir in Worcestershire sauce, Italian seasoning, red pepper flakes, basil, tomato puree, crushed tomatoes, and tomato paste.
- Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer gently for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- If the sauce becomes too dry during simmering, add a tablespoon of olive oil or a splash of tomato puree or water as needed.
- For serving, top pasta with Bolognese sauce, sprinkle with remaining fresh parsley, and grated Parmesan cheese.
- To reheat and create a Vodka Meat Sauce: Add vodka and heavy cream to the sauce and heat through gently, stirring frequently.
