My grandfather has always been making Bolognese sauce for our family. Last time he made it I asked him for his recipe and added a little of my own improvements.
- Chop the onions into small pieces (if you used a food processor as I do don't let it puree)
- Grate the carrots
- Fry the onions and cut up garlic until they start to get yellow and soft.
- Add the carrots and meat mixing often until they are cooked.
- Add the tomatoes, basil, rosemary, and bay leaves. Mix.
- Let it cook on low heat for 20 min. with lid on.
- Add 2 cup wine. Stir. Cook for 2 hours with no lid.
- If sauce gets too thick add more water or wine and stir.
- Add salt and pepper according to your taste.
- Prepare pasta and serve with parmesean.
- Enjoy!
