This Bolognese Sauce is so tasty! Mad with roasted tomatoes and after being cooked for four hours, the flavors are out of this world!
I made some seriously tasty Bolognese Sauce and needed to share it with you all today. It’s my newest favorite tomato-based sauce and will probably blow your minds just like it blew mine. In order to get this sauce to flavor-heaven levels, you need to let it simmer for 4-ish hours or more. Yes, most good pasta sauces are time consuming but most things that taste amazing do take some time. {For example my Irish Beef Stew Recipe.} I wouldn’t put this in the ‘make it for dinner every night’ category, but it’s definitely a keeper and really has minimal ingredients. Also, please don’t confuse ‘takes a long time to make’ with ‘hard recipe’ because it’s totally simple to throw together! For the majority of this recipe, you’ll just be stirring occasionally. That’s it! Let the sauce simmer and let the concept of time work its magic. Before you know it, you’ll be chowing down on some simple yet scrumptious bowls of spaghetti with full and content bellies on your horizons!
Here’s how to make it:
The first thing to do is roast some tomatoes and garlic. I used large beefsteak tomatoes because my husband thought it was a good idea to buy a big ol’ crate of them from Costco. “It didn’t seem like a lot of tomatoes at the store….” Mhmm, that’s what they all say.
Anyways, drizzle these tomatoes with a little olive oil, salt, pepper, and basil.
While the tomatoes are baking, cook up some ground beef in a large pot in more olive oil.
Add in onions and some spices and continue cooking until the onions are soft. Then you can reduce the heat to low until the tomatoes are done cooking.
And just like that through the magic of my blog…whaddaya know! The tomatoes are all roasted!
Throw all of this into a blender and turn it into sauce.
Aaand literally 10 seconds later, we have roasted garlic and tomato sauce!
Pour this into the pot with an extra can of tomato sauce and a sprinkling of sugar. Simmer the sauce for a good 4 hours to thicken and let the flavors develop.
Like so! I’m not sure how closely you’re looking at these photos, but if you compare this one with the last one, you can tell that the sauce looks richer and darker. All good signs of a fabulous sauce. Taste, adjust seasonings and serve over hot pasta.
The natural choice at my house is spaghetti! Add the sauce along with some cheese and proceed to eat bowls and bowls of this stuff.
It’s really so dreamy, you guys! If you think you don’t like spaghetti, give this recipe a whirl. You might just surprise yourself 🙂
