bolognese recipe

Pour over al dente pasta for a memorable meal.

Best Bolognese Sauce

olive oil

onion, chopped

carrot,

celery,

beef

garlic,

dry white wine

tomatoes

tomato paste

bay leaf

c. whole milk

kosher salt

black pepper

Let is simmer for closer to 3 hours to reduce how watery it could be. Definately use the wine, as it enhances all the flavours instead of it tasting bland. Using the milk softens the meat, and adds that traditional Italian orange-ish color, but is not crucial to include. 

Ive made this about 5 or 6 times now, and sometimes add about half a cup of parm cheese to flavour it up a bit more, mixing it into the sauce about 30 mins before serving.

This recipe turned out really well for me. Slow cooking the sauce makes a big difference. I added extra garlic and included italian seasoning to boost the flavour. It was delish! :)

This was a  delicious a new recipe  My husband loved it & thought even better than my old spaghetti  recipe  of  45 years . I made  it  as is,  except  i added a 6 oz can of  tomato paste  and   more garlic &  some  other spices -- simply delicious and I will be making again. 

I did drain of any  grease  and  I  simmered on low ,for     hours. 
I  had no trouble with it being  thick-- I  added all the milk ( I used 1/2 milk and 1/2  half& half  too) -- and took  the advice of another viewer  and added 1/2 cup of fresh grated parmasan right into sauce --

I did this, only that I added bell pepper into the sauté prior to put the meat and used diced sirloin tip center instead.
It has been one of the best bologneses ever

I use this recipe to stuff arancini. It’s delicious and is even more delicious the longer it simmers. I love putting peas in it too.

Excellent recipe!!!  My family loved it as is!!!

I did recipe by using actual tomatoes instead at the beginning of the recipe and by cutting the onion in large chucks right when the meat looks ready I blended with a cup of water and chicken bouillon. Then added with tomato sauce/paste. I let simmer for 20 mins and then added paprika, cayenne pepper, ground pepper, and basil for more taste. I let it simmer for another 20 and added only about 1/2 cup of milk and added a little salt. Smells amazing so far!

I'm in culinary school and my assignment was to make a bolognese sauce with pasta as part of a larger meal with what we had laying around the kitchen.  It needed to be a simple recipe that I could put together quickly.  I found this recipe and it worked perfectly.  One thing I did differently was add about a tablespoon of 'Italian seasoning blend' and next time I make it I will drain out at least some of the fat from the ground beef.  Otherwise it was amazing and I was complimented by my instructor and my classmates.

Well..its a start..but everyone is right..zero flavor..it needs a LOT of help...id probably not make it again

This is the first recipe I tried on this website and I am very disappointed. I am actually more upset at myself for not reading the comments before diving in and trusting the recipe and blindly following the directions and quantities. I wasted two hours of my life and got a watery bland product that definitely was not a bolognese. I had several other recipes tagged to try but alas Delish you have lost my faith and will be looking for a website that actually knows what they're doing.

I followed this recipe without alteration except for the length of time it cooked. The solid to liquid ratio is disproportionate to only cook 2 hours. I had to double this recipe for 2 pounds of pasta and I cooked it for 2 hours and refrigerated it overnight. The next morning I skimmed 3/4 of the fat off and cooked it on simmer for 3 more hours. It was perfect. My family said I could have sold it. Hope this helps the next person who is attempting Bolognese!!

Simmered for a couple hours, this bolognese sauce is amazing for a cold winter night.

Heat the oil in a large non-stick pan and fry the onions for a few mins. Add the carrots, celery and garlic, then fry for 5 mins, stirring until the vegetables start to soften.

Add the meat and stir well so it breaks down as it cooks. Once it’s turned brown, add the passata and bouillon along with 1.3 litres of boiling water. Add the paprika, thyme and some black pepper. Cover the pan and simmer for 15 mins.

Tip in the penne and cook for 12-15 mins until tender. Stir through the cheese, then ladle into bowls. Sprinkle over extra cheese, if you like.

Cool the remaining soup, remove the thyme and chill. Will keep for up to seven days. Reheat in a pan, adding some water if it’s thickened.

Looking for angel hair pasta recipes? This Ground Turkey Bolognese from Delish.com is killer.

Ground Turkey Bolognese

lb. angel hair pasta

onion,

celery stalk, chopped

turkey

c. dry white or red wine

c. parsley,

oregano

Parmesan,

Thank you for this recipe.  It was very tasty for a dish that is quite healthy.  I had the bolognese over zucchini noodles vs. pasta; and for leftovers just ate it by itself.  It was very good.  I added a little red pepper flakes for some kick but otherwise followed the recipe exactly.

I’ve made this a bunch of times, as written (choosing red wine). It smells great, is healthy and has lots of veggies...a great family meal.

Very good! We made this with zoodles so that we could have garlic bread on the side with less carbs. I also added some dried bay leaves and a little crushed red pepper.

Made it for the 1st time tonight.  Used white cooking wine instead of red (didn't have it) & used sweet Italian sausage instead of turkey sausage (didn't have it).  Was a big hit with the family.  Will make it again.

This was DELISH!!!! I didn't use wine, celery, or parsley because I didn't have any, and used spaghetti instead of angel hair, so I can only imagine how good it would be when made 100% properly. It has such a good flavor. I did do a splash of chicken broth to make up for no wine. But wow wow wow I can't wait to make this for my family some day, they would love it!

Came out amazing! A healthy take on classic spaghetti and meat sauce. Definitely making again.

Good! Would make again. I added crushed red pepper, extra olive oil, balsamic vinegar, and crumbled chicken bouillion. I cooked it a lot longer then called for, almost an hour - seemed to need a lot more time in that last stage than the recipe calls for. Added some ricotta when serving. Thanks for the recipe!

Have made this countless times.  It never disappoints.  I serve over spaghetti squash and it makes for an almost zero point weight watchers meal.  I add additional red wine, extra fresh parsley, a little extra oregano and also add some crushed red pepper.

Bring out your inner Italian grandma and make the (lighter) bolognese of your dreams.

This Ground Turkey Bolognese with Angel Hair is a Lighter Take on Your Favorite Pasta Dish!

No need to choose between tangy tomato or creamy cheese sauce – this easy bake, with turkey mince and mascarpone, has the best of both

Turkey bolognese pasta bake

turkey mince (thigh is best)

garlic clove, crushed

tbsp chipotle paste

chicken stock

large pasta shells

tub mascarpone

cheddar, grated

Heat the olive oil in a large pan. Add the onions and cook for 8-10 mins until softened. Add the mince and brown all over. Once browned, add the garlic, tomatoes, chipotle paste and chicken stock, and bring to the boil. Turn down to a simmer and cook, uncovered, for 35-40 mins, adding a splash of water if it looks too dry.

While the turkey cooks, boil the pasta following pack instructions, then drain, reserving some of the water. Warm through the mascarpone with a splash of the hot pasta water over a low heat. Add 140g cheddar, season and stir to combine.

Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Transfer the turkey sauce to a large baking dish. Stir the cheese sauce through the pasta and pour over the mince. Sprinkle the remaining cheddar and the parmesan on top. Bake in the oven for 20 mins or until golden and crisping at the edges.

This vegan mushroom bolognese is a fun spin on the Italian classic. Mushrooms are used for a rich and delicious vegan bolognese that is sure to please.

Vegan Mushroom Bolognese Recipe

onion (diced)

carrots

celery (diced)

garlic

thyme leaves (roughly chopped)

mushrooms

500 g mushrooms (diced, 1 pound)

red wine

soy sauce, gluten-free variety if needed

salt and pepper (to taste)

400 g dried spaghetti ((14 oz))

Place a large frying pan over a medium heat and add the olive oil. Add the onion, carrots and celery, season with salt and cook until slightly golden and caramelised.

Next, add the mushrooms. I like to do this in 4 batches, so they all get a chance to cook properly. Once each batch is cooked add more, until all of the mushrooms are cooked. Add the garlic and thyme, and cook for 2 to 3 minutes, or until the garlic is cooked.

Now remove the wild mushrooms from the boiling water, reserving the soaking water, and roughly chop the wild mushrooms. Add to the wild mushrooms along with the tomato paste to the pan and increase the heat to medium-high. Add the red wine, mushroom soaking liquid and soy sauce. Cook until the wine has almost evaporated before adding the tinned tomatoes and season with salt.

Move the frying pan to your smallest burner, cover and reduce the heat to low and simmer for 30 minutes to 1 hour (depending on your patience although the longer it cooks the better the flavour, check and stir occasionally to make sure it isn't catching), or until the sauce is thick and rich. Check and adjust the seasonings as necessary and remove from the heat.

Just before the sauce is ready, bring a large saucepan of water to a boil. Season generously with salt, and add the spaghetti and cook according to the packet directions. Drain, reserving 1/4 cup of the pasta cooking water and return to the saucepan and top with the mushroom bolognese and cooking water. Toss to combine and divide between 4 bowls to serve. Top with grated parmesan or nutritional yeast if you are vegan.

It&#039;s easy to make the BEST Pasta with Bolognese sauce at home- the kind where the sauce clings to every piece of pasta and has the most delicious Italian taste, with a few tricks and only five ingredients!

Five-Ingredient Pasta with Bolognese Sauce

rigatoni (or other pasta shape)

marinara sauce (I used Rao's)

lb. lean ground beef

extra virgin olive oil

pecorino Romano cheese (finely grated,

kosher salt (to taste)

black pepper (to taste)

parsley (for garnish (optional))

Bring a large pot of heavily salted water to a boil (see notes).

Cook pasta until just before it's al dente (about 2 minutes before the time designated on the package).

Meanwhile, cook ground beef in a large deep skillet until fully cooked. As you are cooking it, break it into very small pieces. I used a potato masher to make sure it got broken up enough.

Move the beef to one side of the skillet and tilt it in order to separate the grease/liquid. Remove the grease with a spoon and discard.

Add the marinara sauce to the ground beef. Stir, cover, and simmer until heated through.

When pasta is done just before it's al dente, reserve 1-2 cups of the pasta water and drain the rest. Don't drain too thoroughly- it's OK, and actually a good thing, if it has some of the water clinging to it.

Add the drained pasta to the skillet with the sauce (you can also move it directly from the water using a slotted spoon). If the skillet is too small, you can add the pasta back into the pot in which it cooked, and add the sauce to it.

Stir to coat the pasta in the sauce in the skillet or pot and keep heat on medium low. Add 1/4 cup of the reserved pasta water, stirring to coat. Add more pasta water as necessary to help the pasta finish cooking to al dente- it will help the sauce thicken and stick to every piece of pasta (I used about 3/4 cup total).

Turn off the heat. Stir in olive oil (2 tablespoons) and pecorino romano cheese (1/4 cup). Taste and add salt if necessary.

Serve immediately with extra pecorino romano and garnished with fresh parsley, seasoned with fresh ground black pepper.

Very yummy!! Thank you. Loved the extra tips it definitely made a difference.

For vegetarian and/or gluten-,free brethren, this came out excellent with Impossible Burger "meat" (using a masher was a great idea) and Tinkyada Pasta Joy brown rice spaghetti.  I added in sauteed onions and spinach for color.  Thanks!

I pretty much do the same thing. I get the frozen 91-9 ground beef from costco (5 x1 lb pack), rao's (2 x 24 oz pack...so much cheaper at costco!) and the organic 6 pack of variety noodles.  So easy and delicious. Going to Costco it costs me about $10 to make (compared to $15 from local grocery store) and it makes more!

I made this two weeks ago and it was fantastic.  My husband asked for it again for tonight.  I was amazed at the flavor of the Rao's jar sauce.  I always make my sauce from scratch but this brand is a close second.
