Rigatoni With 'quick Bolognese' Sauce
Ready In: 30 mins
Serves: 2-4
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1⁄4 cup Italian parsley, minced
- 1⁄2 lb ground chuck
- 1⁄2 teaspoon dried oregano
- salt
- 1 (28 ounce) can whole tomatoes, packed in juice, finely chopped, with juice reserved
- 1⁄2 cup heavy cream
- rigatoni pasta, cooked according to directions
- grated parmesan cheese, to serve with
Directions
- Heat the oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the garlic and parsley and saute until fragrant, about 1 minute.
- Add the ground meat, oregano, and salt. Crumble the meat with the edge of a wooden spoon to break it apart into tiny pieces. Cook, continuing to crumble the meat, just until it loses its raw color but has not yet browned, about 3 minutes.
- Add the tomatoes and their juice and bring to a simmer. Simmer gently until the sauce begins to thicken, about 20 minutes. Stir in the cream, bring to a simmer, and cook until thickened, about 2 to 3 minutes. Adjust seasonings with extra salt to taste.
- Serve over rigatoni. Sprinkle parmesan cheese on top if desired.
