Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 large onion, finely chopped
- 2 carrots, finely chopped
- 2 celery stalks, finely chopped
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 can (14 oz) crushed tomatoes
- 1 tablespoon tomato paste
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon dried basil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 cup beef broth
- 1/2 cup milk (optional, but trust us, it’s good)
- Cooked pasta of your choice (spaghetti, fettuccine, you name it!)
Instructions
- First, grab a big pot and heat the olive oil over medium heat. Toss in the onion, carrots, and celery. Sauté these until they’re softer than a marshmallow on a summer day—about 5-7 minutes.
- Add the garlic and cook for 1 more minute. You want it aromatic enough to make your neighbors question your cooking skills!
- Time to add the star of this show—ground beef! Brown it until it’s no longer pink. Don’t forget to break it up into smaller bursts of flavor!
- Now, stir in the crushed tomatoes, tomato paste, oregano, basil, salt, and pepper. You’re practically a chef already!
- Pour in the beef broth and give it a good stir. Bring it to a gentle simmer and let it bubble away for about 30 minutes. This is where the magic happens!
- If you’re feeling adventurous, now’s the time to add the milk for a creamier consistency.
- Serve this aromatic goodness over your pasta of choice and bask in the glory of your culinary achievement!
