INGREDIENTS
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 large Onions ; chopped
- 1 kg Ground beef
- 800 grams Chopped Tomatoes
- 2 Bay leaves
- 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon Thyme
- 1 teaspoon Balsamic Vinegar
- 12 Sun-dried tomatoes
- Salt & pepper
- Basil fresh
- 800 grams Spaghetti
- 2 large glasses Red Wine
INSTRUCTIONS
Heat the oil in a large, heavy-based saucepan before adding the onions and garlic, frying until softened. Increase the heat and add the minced beef. Fry it until it has browned, breaking down any chunks of meat with a wooden spoon. Pour in the wine and boil until it has reduced in volume by about a third. Reduce the temperature and stir in the tomatoes, bay leaves, oregano, thyme and balsamic vinegar.
Either blitz the sun-dried tomatoes in a small blender with a little of the oil to loosen, or just finely chop before adding to the pan. Season well with salt and pepper. Cover with a lid and simmer the Bolognese sauce over a gentle heat for 1-1½ hours until it's rich and thickened, stirring occasionally. At the end of the cooking time, stir in the basil and add any extra seasoning if necessary.
Remove from the heat to 'settle' while you cook the spaghetti in plenty of boiling salted water (for the time stated on the packet). Drain and divide between warmed plates. Scatter a little parmesan over the spaghetti before adding a good ladleful of the Bolognese sauce, finishing with a scattering of more cheese and a twist of black pepper.
