Ingredients
- 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- 1 medium onion, finely chopped
- 3 stalks celery, finely chopped
- 2 large carrots, peeled and finely chopped
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tbsp unsalted butter
- 1 lb ground pork (I used 80/20)
- 1 lb ground beef (I used 93/7)
- 1/2 cup dry red wine
- 1/2 cup beef broth
- 3 tbsp tomato paste
- 1 28-oz can crushed tomatoes
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp pepper
- 2 tsp The Spice Girl Kitchen Italian Spice
- 12 oz spaghetti, dry
- green onion, for serving
- freshly shaved parmesan, for serving
- fresh cracked pepper, for serving
Instructions
- Heat the olive oil in a pan over medium-high heat. Add onions, celery, and carrots. Saute for 5 minutes or until veggies have softened.
- Add in the garlic and saute 1 additional minute.
- Add in the butter, ground pork, and ground beef. Break up the meat with a wooden spatula as it cooks. Cook until the meat is browned, about 5-7 minutes.
- Add in the wine, then deglaze the pan by scraping any browned bits from the bottom. Bring to a boil, and let it cook uncovered for about 3 minutes, or until the liquid has reduced by about half.
- Add in the beef broth, tomato paste, crushed tomatoes, salt, pepper, and Italian spice. Stir well to combine. Bring to a boil, then immediately reduce heat to a simmer. Let simmer uncovered for 15-20 minutes. The sauce will thicken up.
- While sauce cooks, cook pasta according to package directions. Drain. Toss with 1 tbsp olive oil to prevent sticking. Set aside.
- Divide the pasta between 6 bowls, top with sauce (divide the sauce evenly between bowls), garnish with green onion, freshly grated parmesan, and fresh cracked pepper. Enjoy!
