Who doesn't love the very comforting taste of Bolognese sauce? Well, I got a keeper recipe fro the classic Italian meat sauce that you'll find very easy.
Begin by having all the ingredients used in this dish prepared, cut up and collected before beginning cooking. This organized way of cooking reduces surprises and lets you concentrate on the food as it cooks.
Brown the meat by cooking it on high heat as quickly as possible. Garnish with Salt, Pepper and olive oil.
After the meat has cooked, add onion and green pepper to the pan and cook for 4 to 5 minutes.
Still, add garlic and mushrooms on high heat and cook for 5 minutes. The mixture should release some water while cooking, which helps in making sure the meat does not burn. Add a bit of water if the mixture seems dry.
Add tomato paste and mix it into the mixture using a wooden spoon. Mixing it well to ensure that the paste’s bitterness diffuses into other ingredients.
Add chili pepper, bay leaf, and crushed tomatoes and bring to a boil. Adjust sauce consistency with water. Reduce heat to medium heat and cook uncovered.
The sauce will reduce and thicken. Remove the bay leaf and chili pepper and adjust the seasoning before serving.
