Zubereitung

Heat the olive oil in a heavy 4-liter saucepan over medium heat. Add the onion, carrot, and celery with a pinch of salt and cook for 8 to 10 minutes, stirring often, until soft and lightly golden.

Add the garlic and cook for 30 seconds, until fragrant. Add the ground beef and ground pork, increase the heat to medium-high, and cook for 8 to 10 minutes, breaking up the meat, until no pink remains and the meat reaches 74°C.

Pour in the red wine and simmer for 4 to 5 minutes, scraping the bottom of the pan, until the sharp alcohol aroma fades and the liquid is reduced by about half.

Stir in the crushed tomatoes, milk, remaining salt, and black pepper. Bring just to a simmer, then reduce the heat to low and simmer uncovered for 50 to 60 minutes, stirring occasionally, until thick and glossy.

Bring a large pot of generously salted water to a rolling boil. Add the spaghetti and cook according to the package directions until al dente, with a slight firmness at the center.

Reserve 120 ml of pasta water, then drain the spaghetti. Return it to the pot and toss with the hot ragù, adding the reserved water a splash at a time until the sauce coats the strands evenly.

Divide the spaghetti among four warm bowls, top with the grated Parmesan, and serve immediately while the sauce is hot.

Warum dieses Rezept gelingt

A soffritto of onion, carrot, and celery creates sweetness and aroma, while browning two meats adds depth. Milk softens the tomato acidity, and a long, gentle simmer brings the sauce together without making it heavy.
