  • In a saucepan over medium heat, sauté the onion, celery, carrot and garlic with the olive oil for about 4-5 minutes.
  • Add the minced meat and break it while cooking, let it be fine without large pieces, about 5 minutes.
  • After the minced meat turns brown, quench it with the wine and let the alcohol evaporate completely.
  • As soon as the wine evaporates, add the tomato paste, the tomatoes (after we have melted them), the cube, the water, the milk.
  • Cover the pot well with greaseproof paper and aluminum foil, lower the heat and simmer for about 1 hour.
  • At the end of the cooking, add salt, pepper, cinnamon, mint, the sprigs of parsley. Cover again and simmer for about 20 minutes until the bolognese sets.
  • As the minced meat boils, we prepare our pasta.

  • Once our pasta is al dente, remove from the heat, strain it and set aside.
  • Once our sauce has set, serve the spaghetti with the sauce and grated cheese.
