Discover the magical blend of flavors in our scrumptious Bolognese Sauce. This hearty dish combines beef, pork, and crispy bacon with fresh vegetables, creating a delightful symphony of tastes simmered in a herby tomato and wine sauce for a truly satisfying meal. Perfect for any pasta lover!
In a large skillet, gently warm the olive oil over a medium flame. Toss in the minced onion, bite-sized bacon bits, and minced garlic, allowing the bacon to crisp in the golden soiree of oil for around 10 minutes. Once done, scoop out this savory mix to rest on a paper towel, letting it drain off the excess goodness, and set aside.
Using the same well-loved skillet, elevate the heat to medium-high. Introduce the ground beef and pork, stir and let them embolden with a browned and crumbly personality, which takes about 5 to 7 minutes. With a keen eye, shy away any excessive grease.
Now, unite the bacon melody, tantalizing tomatoes, mushrooms, inviting tomato sauce, shredded carrots, chopped celery, aromatic wine, comforting stock, and a dash of basil and oregano to the meat cameo. As the concoction heats up to a lively bubble, gently shelter it, reduce to a contemplative simmer for an hour, stirring upon whim.
In parallel, set a spacious pot of lightly salted water dancing on the flame until in full swing. Submerge the pasta, cooking it in this vigorous whirl until reaching that perfect al dente tenderness, between 8 to 10 minutes. Drain with poise.
Gracefully ladle the succulent sauce over steaming pasta, allowing the flavors to meld beautifully on the plate. Enjoy each bite of this lovingly crafted Bolognese!
