Ingredients (for 4 persons)
- 3 cloves of garlic, pressed
- 4 shallots, chopped
- 6 sprigs of thyme, riced
- 2 sprigs of rosemary, finely chopped
- 4 stalks of celery, in small cubes
- 2 carrots, in small cubes
- 500 grams of Livar minced meat
- 140 grams of tomato puree
- 150 grams of white wine
- 800g medium-sized tomatoes (e.g. Tasty Tom)
- 50 g cold butter, diced
- 500 grams fresh spaghetti
- Olive oil for frying
- 100 g Parmesan cheese, grated
- Basil for garnish
- Basil oil (delicatessen shop)
- 1 lime
- First make the bolognese sauce. Remove the crowns from the tomatoes and put the tomatoes in a blender. Blend until smooth and set aside.
- Next, over medium-high heat, fry the garlic, shallots, thyme and rosemary glazed in olive oil. Then add the celery and carrot. Fry this for a while. When everything has sweated, add the minced meat. Turn up the heat and fry until brown.
- When you have browned the minced meat, add the tomato puree. Fry this in the pan for a few minutes to de-acidify. Keep stirring well. Once the tomato puree has de-acidified, add the white wine. Let it simmer for a while so that the alcohol evaporates. When the wine has almost completely evaporated, add the mixed tomatoes. Stir everything well and simmer on low heat until the desired thickness is reached. If necessary, season with salt and black pepper.
- Just before serving, stir the cold butter into the bolognese sauce. Cook the spaghetti in salted water. Mix the sauce with the cooked spaghetti.
- Dress and finish with lime zest, fresh basil leaves, Parmesan cheese and basil oil.
