👨🍳 Инструкции
- 1
Prepare the sofrito: Heat olive oil in a large, heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the finely chopped onion and carrot. Sauté, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables have softened and the onion is translucent, about 8-10 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.
⏱️ 10 minutes - 2
Brown the meat: Add the ground beef to the pot. Break it up with a spoon and cook until it's browned all over and no pink remains. Drain off any excess fat.
⏱️ 10 minutes - 3
Deglaze with wine: Pour in the red wine. Scrape the bottom of the pot to loosen any browned bits. Let the wine simmer and reduce by about half, allowing the alcohol to evaporate, about 3-5 minutes.
⏱️ 5 minutes - 4
Add tomatoes and simmer: Stir in the crushed tomatoes, beef broth (if using), bay leaf (if using), salt, and pepper. Bring the sauce to a gentle simmer. Reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and let it cook for at least 1.5 to 2 hours, stirring occasionally. The longer it simmers, the richer the flavor will become. The sauce should thicken and the flavors meld beautifully.
⏱️ 1 hour 30 minutes to 2 hours - 5
Cook the pasta: About 10 minutes before the sauce is finished simmering, bring a large pot of generously salted water to a rolling boil. Add the fresh tagliatelle and cook according to package directions, usually 2-4 minutes for fresh pasta, until al dente (tender but with a slight bite).
⏱️ 5 minutes - 6
Combine and serve: Drain the pasta, reserving about 1/2 cup of the pasta water. Add the drained pasta directly to the pot with the tuco sauce. Toss gently to coat the pasta evenly. If the sauce seems too thick, add a little of the reserved pasta water to loosen it to your desired consistency. Serve immediately, topped with freshly grated Parmesan cheese.
