- 1 tbsp salt
- Black pepper
- 3 tbsp olive oil (, separated)
- 3 cloves garlic (, minced)
- 1 onion (, diced)
- 1 cup carrots (, diced (Note 2))
- 1 cup celery (, diced (Note 2))
- 800 g / 28oz crushed canned tomatoes
- 3 tbsp tomato paste
- 2 beef bouillon cubes (, crumbled (Note 3))
- 1 cup / 250ml red wine (, full bodied (like merlot, cabernet sauvignon), or sub with beef broth/stock)
- 1 1/2 cups / 375 ml water ((Note 3))
- 3/4 tsp dried thyme ( or 3 sprigs fresh thyme)
- 3 dried bay leaves
- 1 lb /500g dried pappardelle (, or other pasta of choice (Note 4))
- Freshly grated parmesan cheese or parmigiano reggiano

Langkah-langkah
-
Pat beef dry and sprinkle with salt and pepper
-
Sear Beef: Heat 1 tbsp olive oil over high heat in a heavy based pot. Add beef and sear each piece aggressively on all sides until very browned (3 - 5 minutes in total), then remove onto a plate.
-
Turn stove down to medium low and add remaining 2 tbsp of olive oil.
-
Soffrito: Add garlic and onion and sauté for 2 minutes. Then add the carrots and celery and sauté slowly for 5 minutes.
-
Add remaining Ragu ingredients and return the beef to the pot (including pooled juices). Turn the stove up and bring it to a simmer, then turn it down to low so it's bubbling very very gently. (Note 7)
-
Slow cook: Cover the pot and let it cook for 2 hours or until beef is tender enough to shred. (Note 5 for slow cooker and pressure cooker).
-
Shred: Remove beef then coarsely shred with 2 forks. Return beef to the pot. Simmer for 30 minutes until sauce is reduced and thickened - beef will soften slightly more during this step.
-
Final season: Do a taste test and adjust the seasoning to your taste with salt and pepper. ALSO, add 1/2 tsp sugar if sauce is a bit sour for your taste (Note 6). Place the lid on and set aside until ready to serve (it's even better the next day and freezes well for months!).
-
Bring a very large pot of water with 1 tbsp of salt to the boil.
-
Add pasta and cook for 1 minute less than the recommended cooking time as per the packet instructions.
-
Meanwhile, place 5 cups of the Ragu in a very large fry pan, dutch oven or use 2 normal size fry pans. Heat over high heat while the pasta is cooking.
-
When the pasta is ready, transfer it directly from the pot into the fry pan using tongs.
-
Add 3/4 cup of pasta water into the fry pan.
-
Gently toss the pasta (I use 2 wooden spoons) for 1 to 2 minutes, until the sauce water evaporates and leaves you with a thick Ragu sauce that coats the pasta.
-
Yell for your family to sit down at the dinner table because you need to serve it immediately!
-
Serve with plenty of freshly grated parmesan, or even better, with parmigiano reggiano.
