Fettuccine Alfredo

Ingredients

• Butter
• Parmesan cheese
• Garlic
• Heavy cream
• Salt
• 
  Instructions
  

1. Start by bringing water to a boil in a large pot. Add salt to the water to season the pasta. Once it is boiling, add pasta and cook according to package instructions.
   
   Saute the garlic and butter together until softened — about 1 to 2 minutes.
   
   Add heavy cream and let simmer over medium-high heat for about 5 minutes to thicken. Add salt and pepper to taste. Add half of the parmesan cheese to the mixture and whisk well until smooth.
   
   Save some pasta water. The pasta water is full of flavor and can be used to thin out the sauce.
   
   Toss alfredo sauce with fettuccine pasta and add half of the parmesan cheese. Once it is tossed, garnish with the remaining parmesan cheese. Add a little pasta water if it needs to be thinned out.
   
   Garnish with Italian parsley, if so desired.

Spaghetti Bolognese

Ingredients

• • 1 1/2 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 garlic cloves , minced
  • 1 onion , finely chopped (brown, yellow or white)
  • 1 lb / 500g beef mince (ground beef) OR half pork, half beef (Note 1)
  • 1/2 cup (125 ml) dry red wine (sub water or beef broth/stock)
  • 2 beef bouillon cubes , crumbled OR granulated beef bouillon (Note 2)
  • 800g / 28 oz can crushed tomato (or tomato passata)
  • 2 tbsp tomato paste
  • 2 tsp white sugar , if needed (Note 3)
  • 2 tsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 2 dried bay leaves
  • 2 sprigs fresh thyme (or 1/2 tsp dried thyme or oregano)
  • Salt and pepper
    
    To Serve
    400 g / 13 oz spaghetti
    Parmesan cheese and finely chopped parsley (optional)
    

Instructions

1. Heat oil in a large pot or deep skillet over medium high heat. Add onion and garlic, cook for 3 minutes or until light golden and softened.
   
   
2. Turn heat up to high and add beef. Cook, breaking it up as your go, until browned.
   
   
3. Add red wine. Bring to simmer and cook for 1 minute, scraping the bottom of the pot, until the alcohol smell is gone.
   
   Add remaining ingredients except salt and pepper. Stir, bring to a simmer then turn down to medium so it bubbles gently. Cook for 20 – 30 minutes (no lid), adding water if the sauce gets too thick for your taste. Stir occasionally.
   
   Slow simmer option: really takes this to another level, if you have the time! Add 3/4 cup of water, cover with lid and simmer on very low for 2 – 2.5 hours, stirring every 30 minutes or so. (Note 5) Uncover, simmer 20 minutes to thicken sauce. (Note 6 for slow cooker).
   
   Adjust salt and pepper to taste right at the end. Serve over spaghetti – though if you have the time, I recommend tossing the sauce and pasta per steps below.
