Burnt my hand making bread today, so I am going to keep this short and informative. This delicious meat sauce is basically a combination of beef stew & french onion soup, it’s also very easy to make but takes a long time, so clear up your morning so you can enjoy it for dinner.
You Need:
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1/4 lb pancetta
- 3 pounds beef chuck
- 1/2 cup diced celery
- 1/2 cup diced carrot
- 1 tsp freshly ground black pepper
- 1 bay leaf
- 1 cup white wine
- 3 lb yellow onions
- 3 lb red onions
How to make this:
- Heat up a large pot or dutch oven with oil, chop the pancetta and fry them until they are crispy
- Roughly chop the beef chuck into 1-inch cubes, quickly marinate them with some salt and black pepper, cook them on high heat until they are browned
- Deglaze the pan with the white wine, turn the heat down to medium, evenly mix in the diced carrot and celery, and let it cook for 10 min
- Roughly chop all 6 lbs of onion into 1/4 inch thin slices, if you don’t want to cut the onion, chop each into quarters, then blend them in a food processor with some olive oil
- Add the onion, close the lid and turn the heat down to medium-low after it simmers
- Check it once every half hour for the first 2 hours, then let it simmer in the pot/dutch oven for 6 hours, stir it occasionally
- Add salt to taste, serve it with some Rigatoni or any tube and shell pasta
