Instructions

Heat a pan, add olive oil and sauté the minced garlic.

Add diced onion and fry over low heat until the onion is soft and translucent and fragrant.

Add diced carrots and diced celery (if using) and continue to stir-fry for 2-3 minutes.
-
Add ground beef (or pork), break up the meat with a spatula and stir-fry until it changes color.
-
If using red wine, add the wine at this time and stir-fry evenly to allow the alcohol to evaporate, remove the meaty smell and increase the flavor.
-
Add the tomato pieces and stir-fry evenly until the tomatoes are soft and juicy.
-
Add salt, black pepper, and sugar (if needed) to taste and adjust the amount according to your personal taste.
-
Add dried basil and dried parsley and stir well.
-
If you like a thicker sauce, you can simmer for a while to let the sauce dry up a little. If you think the sauce is too dry, you can add some boiling water as needed.
-
Put the cooked spaghetti into the meat sauce pot and mix well with the meat sauce to make each noodle covered with meat sauce.
-
If you use butter, add the butter at this time and stir until the butter melts to make the noodles more fragrant.
-
Serve the tomato meat sauce spaghetti on a plate. You can sprinkle some cheese powder and Green tea seasoning as decoration according to your personal preference to add flavor.
