We take a large saucepan, put it on the fire, pour itthere is one tablespoon of olive oil, add butter and wait until it dissolves. Next, put there finely chopped vegetables (carrots, celery, garlic). Vegetables should be so finely chopped that, when they are fried and fried, dissolved in the sauce, and only their taste remains. Add pancetta and gradually stir until the vegetables are soft.
After that, put in our sauce minced by turns,first one, then the second. Meat should be well roasted until pink, but not boiled. It is important! Another thing: minced meat should be well kneaded. You can use a wooden spoon to get rid of clots.

It often takes a long time, but once you have started to prepare the sauce, then do it right. The recipe for the Bolognese pasta takes about 3 hours.

And while your sauce is brewed, you can proceedpreparation of the paste itself. In a large pot of water put on the fire and bring to a boil, add salt to taste and put the pasta. So that they do not stick together, you need a sufficient amount of water and constant stirring, especially until the moment when they boil. After boiling, you can make fire less and leave them to cook for another 15 minutes (the time depends on the type of pasta).
Then you pass the finished pasta through a colander,remove the water, and put the macaroni in a saucepan with sauce. All you mix is good, so that all the pasta turns pink. Spread in a portioned plate and decorate with a twig of green. Pasta with Bolognese sauce is ready. Bon Appetit!
