Delicious Beef Stew: Easy & Non-Alcoholic Recipe! this Recipe

Ingredients:

For the Rich Lamb Bolognese Sauce:

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil: A good quality extra virgin olive oil really makes a difference here, providing a fruity depth to the initial sauté.
  • 1 medium yellow onion: Finely diced, aiming for pieces no larger than a grain of rice for a smooth sauce.
  • 2 carrots: Peeled and finely diced, these add essential sweetness and body.
  • 2 celery stalks: Finely diced, contributing a fresh, aromatic note to the soffritto base.
  • 4 cloves garlic: Minced, for that pungent, aromatic kick. Please don’t skimp on fresh garlic!
  • 500g (about 1.1 lbs) ground lamb: I absolutely adore lamb for bolognese; its rich, slightly gamey flavor is incredible. Make sure it’s good quality.
  • 150g (about 5 oz) pancetta: Diced into small lardons. This fatty, salty cured pork renders down beautifully and provides an amazing foundational flavor. If you can’t find pancetta, good quality smoked streaky bacon will work in a pinch.
  • 120ml (½ cup) dry red wine: Something robust like a Chianti or a Montepulciano. This is crucial for deglazing and building complex flavors.
  • 800g (about 28 oz) crushed tomatoes: High-quality canned crushed tomatoes are best. San Marzano are always a winner if you can get them.
  • 250ml (1 cup) whole milk: This might seem unusual, but trust me, it’s a traditional ingredient that tenderizes the meat and mellows the acidity of the tomatoes, leading to an incredibly creamy, luxurious sauce.
  • 60g (¼ cup) tomato paste: For an intense, concentrated tomato flavor.
  • 2 bay leaves: For an earthy, herbal aroma.
  • 1 sprig fresh rosemary: A lovely partner to lamb, providing a fragrant, piney note.
  • ½ teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg: A secret weapon in bolognese, nutmeg adds warmth and a subtle spice that elevates the entire dish.
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper: To taste, throughout the cooking process.
  • Optional: A splash of beef or chicken broth if the sauce becomes too thick during simmering.

For the Fresh Tagliatelle Pasta:

  • 300g (about 2 ½ cups) “00” flour: This Italian flour is finely milled and has a lower protein content than bread flour, resulting in a silkier, more tender pasta. If you can’t find it, all-purpose flour works, but you might need to adjust the liquid slightly.
  • 3 large eggs: Room temperature eggs incorporate more easily into the flour.
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil: Adds elasticity and a subtle flavor to the dough.
  • ½ teaspoon fine sea salt: Enhances the flavor of the pasta itself.
  • Extra “00” flour or semolina flour: For dusting your work surface and the rolled pasta. Semolina provides a lovely toothsome texture.

For Serving and Garnish:

  • Freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese: Abundantly, this is non-negotiable for a truly authentic experience!
  • Fresh basil leaves: A few torn leaves for a burst of freshness and color.

Preparing the Rich Lamb Bolognese Sauce:

  1. Getting Started with the Soffritto: My first step for any great Bolognese is to build a robust flavor base. In a large, heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven, heat your 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Once it’s shimmering, add the diced pancetta. We want to render out its fat slowly, so let it cook, stirring occasionally, for about 8-10 minutes until it’s beautifully crispy and golden brown. Once the pancetta is crisp, use a slotted spoon to remove it and set it aside on a plate lined with paper towels; we’ll add this back later for texture and a burst of flavor. Leave the rendered fat in the pot – that’s pure gold!
  2. Building the Aromatics: Now, into that delicious pancetta fat (add a tiny bit more olive oil if it looks a little dry), toss in your finely diced onion, carrots, and celery – what we Italians call the “soffritto.” This trifecta of vegetables is the soul of our sauce. Sauté them gently over medium-low heat for about 10-12 minutes, or until they’ve softened considerably and the onion is translucent, but not browned. We’re coaxing out their natural sweetness, not caramelizing them. Patience here is key; don’t rush this step, as it forms the aromatic foundation of your bolognese.
  3. Introducing the Garlic and Lamb: Once your soffritto is perfectly tender, add the minced garlic to the pot. Cook for just one minute more, stirring constantly, until it becomes fragrant. Be careful not to burn the garlic, as it can turn bitter very quickly. Immediately after the garlic becomes fragrant, crumble in your ground lamb. Break it up with a wooden spoon as it cooks. You want to brown the lamb thoroughly on all sides, turning up the heat slightly to medium-high if needed. This browning, or Maillard reaction, is absolutely essential for developing deep, complex flavors. Cook until no pink remains, which usually takes about 8-10 minutes.
  4. Deglazing with Wine and Intensifying Tomato Flavor: Once the lamb is beautifully browned, drain off any excess fat from the pot. We want flavor, not greasiness! Now, pour in the dry red wine. Turn the heat up to high and scrape up all those flavorful browned bits from the bottom of the pot with your wooden spoon. This is deglazing, and it’s a magical step that adds incredible depth. Let the wine simmer vigorously for about 3-5 minutes, until it has almost completely evaporated and the alcohol smell has cooked off. Next, stir in the tomato paste. Cook the tomato paste for 2-3 minutes, stirring continuously, allowing it to toast slightly. This step deepens its flavor and removes any raw taste.
  5. Adding the Liquids and Herbs: It’s time to build the body of our sauce. Pour in the crushed tomatoes and the whole milk. Yes, milk! It’s a traditional addition that tenderizes the meat and mellows the acidity of the tomatoes, creating a wonderfully rich and creamy texture without adding actual cream. Add the bay leaves, the sprig of fresh rosemary, and that essential freshly grated nutmeg. Give everything a good stir to combine.
  6. The Long Simmer: Bring the sauce to a gentle simmer, then reduce the heat to the lowest setting possible, cover the pot partially (leaving a small gap for steam to escape), and let it cook for a minimum of 3 hours, though 4-5 hours is even better. I’ve found that the longer it simmers, the more the flavors meld and deepen. Stir occasionally, every 30-45 minutes, to prevent the bottom from sticking. If you notice the sauce becoming too thick, you can add a splash of beef or chicken broth, or even a little water, to maintain a nice, loose consistency. This slow cooking is where the magic truly happens, transforming simple ingredients into something extraordinary. This patient simmering process is sometimes referred to as ‘method ?pp=1’ for its ability to extract maximum flavor.
  7. Finishing Touches: After its long, luxurious simmer, remove the bay leaves and rosemary sprig from the sauce. Stir in the crispy pancetta you set aside earlier. Taste the bolognese and adjust the seasoning with salt and freshly ground black pepper as needed. You’ll likely need a good amount of salt to bring out all the flavors. I often find that adding a final pinch of nutmeg at this stage, just before serving, really brightens the entire dish.

Crafting the Fresh Tagliatelle Pasta:

  1. Creating the Flour Well: On a clean, large work surface (a wooden board is ideal if you have one), mound your “00” flour. Use your fingers to create a deep well in the center, almost like a volcano crater. Make sure the walls of the well are sturdy enough to hold the liquids.
  2. Adding Wet Ingredients: Crack the 3 room-temperature eggs directly into the well. Add the tablespoon of olive oil and the ½ teaspoon of fine sea salt to the eggs.
  3. Mixing the Dough: With a fork, gently whisk the eggs, olive oil, and salt together in the center of the well. Slowly, begin to incorporate small amounts of flour from the inner walls of the well into the egg mixture. Continue whisking and incorporating flour until the mixture starts to thicken into a shaggy dough. At this point, ditch the fork and use your hands. Scrape all the remaining flour into the egg mixture and start to bring it all together. It will be sticky at first, but keep working it.
  4. The Kneading Process: This is where you develop the gluten for that perfect pasta texture. Once all the flour is incorporated and you have a cohesive, though still shaggy, ball, begin kneading. Push the dough away from you with the heel of your hand, then fold it back over itself, rotate, and repeat. Continue kneading vigorously for about 10-15 minutes. You’ll feel the dough transform from rough and sticky to smooth, elastic, and firm. It should be supple and spring back slightly when poked. Don’t skimp on the kneading; it’s vital for a tender yet chewy pasta.
  5. Resting the Dough: Form the kneaded dough into a ball. Wrap it tightly in plastic wrap or place it in an airtight container. Let it rest at room temperature for at least 30 minutes, or up to an hour. This resting period is crucial; it allows the gluten to relax, making the dough much easier to roll out evenly and preventing it from shrinking back.
  6. Dividing and Preparing for Rolling: After resting, unwrap the dough. It should feel incredibly smooth and pliable. If your work surface is clean, you can lightly dust it with a tiny bit of “00” flour or semolina. Cut the dough into 2-3 manageable portions; this makes rolling much easier. Keep the portions you’re not working with covered so they don’t dry out.
  7. Rolling the Pasta (Machine Method – Recommended): Lightly dust one portion of dough with flour and flatten it slightly with your hand. Set your pasta machine to its widest setting (usually ‘0’ or ‘1’). Pass the dough through this setting. Fold the dough into thirds (like a letter) and pass it through again, a few times, until it forms a neat rectangle and is smooth. This conditions the dough. Now, gradually decrease the roller setting, passing the dough through each setting once or twice. For tagliatelle, I usually go down to setting ‘6’ or ‘7’ on my machine (on a 9-setting machine), aiming for a thickness of about 1mm. The pasta sheet should be long, thin, and slightly translucent.
  8. Rolling the Pasta (By Hand Method – If you’re feeling ambitious!): If you don’t have a pasta machine, don’t despair! You can use a long rolling pin. Start by flattening a portion of dough into a disc. Roll it outwards from the center, rotating the dough frequently and lifting it to prevent sticking. Use light dusting of flour as needed. Aim for a very thin sheet, almost transparent, about 1mm thick. This requires practice and arm strength!
  9. Cutting the Tagliatelle: Once your pasta sheet is rolled to the desired thickness, lay it flat on a lightly floured surface. You have a few options:

    • Pasta Machine Cutter: If your pasta machine has a tagliatelle attachment, simply feed the long sheet through the cutter.
    • By Hand: Lightly dust the entire sheet with a bit of flour. Fold the sheet loosely into a log or roll it up (not too tightly, or it will stick!). Using a sharp knife, slice the dough into strips about ¼ inch (0.6 cm) wide.

    Once cut, gently unroll or separate the tagliatelle strands and toss them lightly with a bit of flour or semolina to prevent them from sticking together. Create little nests of pasta and lay them on a lightly floured baking sheet or a clean kitchen towel.

  10. Drying the Pasta (Briefly): Let your fresh pasta sit out at room temperature for about 15-30 minutes before cooking. This allows it to dry slightly, firming up a bit, which helps it hold its shape better during cooking and gives it a lovely al dente bite.

Cooking the Pasta and Assembling Your Masterpiece:

  1. Boiling the Water: In a very large pot, bring at least 6-8 liters (about 1.5-2 gallons) of water to a rolling boil. It’s crucial to use plenty of water to prevent the pasta from sticking and to ensure it cooks evenly. Once boiling, add a generous handful of coarse sea salt – the water should taste like the sea! This is the only chance you have to season the pasta itself.
  2. Cooking the Fresh Tagliatelle: Gently add the fresh tagliatelle nests to the boiling salted water. Stir immediately to prevent the strands from sticking together. Fresh pasta cooks much faster than dried pasta, usually in just 2-4 minutes. Start tasting after 2 minutes. You’re looking for that perfect al dente texture – tender but with a slight bite in the center. Don’t overcook it!
  3. Marrying Pasta and Sauce: Just before the pasta is fully cooked, reserve about ½ cup of the starchy pasta cooking water. This liquid is gold; it helps to emulsify the sauce and makes it cling beautifully to the pasta. Drain the cooked pasta quickly.
  4. Final Assembly: Transfer the drained pasta directly into the pot with your simmering bolognese sauce. Add a splash or two of that reserved pasta water. Toss everything together vigorously for about 1-2 minutes over low heat. This step is key: it allows the pasta to absorb some of the sauce’s incredible flavor and creates a cohesive, delicious dish where every strand is coated. The starch from the pasta water will help the sauce cling perfectly.
  5. Serving with Panache: Divide the pasta and bolognese among warm serving bowls. Garnish generously with freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese. I mean, go wild! A few torn fresh basil leaves add a final touch of vibrant color and freshness. Serve immediately and enjoy the fruits of your labor! This dish is a true testament to slow cooking and homemade goodness.

For a wonderful vegetarian twist, consider swapping out the protein for hearty chickpeas, a medley of roasted vegetables like tender zucchini and vibrant bell peppers, or even firm, pan-fried tofu. You could also playfully try different cheeses; a bit of smoky provolone, a sharp aged cheddar, or even some creamy goat cheese could add another fascinating layer of complexity and depth. And for those adventurous cooks among us, why not try adding some earthy sautéed mushrooms or a splash of dry white wine to the sauce for an extra dimension of exquisite flavor?

Instructions

  1. Step 1
    In a large, heavy-bottomed pot, heat 2 tbsp olive oil over medium heat. Add diced smoked beef bacon; cook 8-10 minutes until crispy and golden. Remove bacon with a slotted spoon and set aside. Leave rendered fat in the pot.
  2. Step 2
    Add finely diced onion, carrots, and celery to the pot. Sauté gently over medium-low heat for 10-12 minutes until softened and translucent, not browned.
  3. Step 3
    Stir in minced garlic, cook for 1 minute until fragrant. Crumble in ground beef; brown thoroughly for 8-10 minutes, breaking it up with a wooden spoon until no pink remains.
  4. Step 4
    Drain off any excess fat from the pot. Pour in the beef broth with a splash of red wine vinegar. Turn heat to high, scrape up all browned bits from the bottom. Simmer vigorously for 3-5 minutes until almost evaporated. Stir in tomato paste; cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring continuously, to deepen its flavor.
  5. Step 5
    Pour in crushed tomatoes and whole milk. Add bay leaves, fresh rosemary sprig, and freshly grated nutmeg. Stir everything to combine well.
  6. Step 6
    Bring the sauce to a gentle simmer, then reduce heat to the lowest setting. Cover the pot partially and let it cook for a minimum of 3 hours (4-5 hours is even better) for flavors to meld and deepen. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking. If the sauce becomes too thick, add a splash of beef or chicken broth. This patient simmering process is sometimes referred to as ‘method ?pp=1’ for its ability to extract maximum flavor.
  7. Step 7
    After simmering, remove bay leaves and rosemary sprig. Stir in the reserved crispy beef bacon. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and freshly ground black pepper. A final pinch of nutmeg can brighten the dish.
  8. Step 8
    On a clean work surface, mound ’00’ flour and create a deep well in the center.
  9. Step 9
    Crack 3 room-temperature eggs into the well. Add 1 tbsp olive oil and ½ tsp fine sea salt. Gently whisk wet ingredients, slowly incorporating flour from the inner walls until a shaggy dough forms.
  10. Step 10
    Scrape all remaining flour into the mixture. Knead vigorously for 10-15 minutes until the dough is smooth, elastic, and firm.
  11. Step 11
    Form the kneaded dough into a ball, wrap tightly in plastic wrap, and let it rest at room temperature for at least 30 minutes.
  12. Step 12
    Divide dough into 2-3 portions. Lightly dust one portion, flatten slightly. Pass through the widest setting of a pasta machine. Fold into thirds, pass through again a few times until smooth. Gradually decrease roller settings, passing dough through each until approximately 1mm thick (setting ‘6’ or ‘7’ on a 9-setting machine).
  13. Step 13
    If rolling by hand, flatten a dough portion into a disc. Roll outwards from the center using a long rolling pin, rotating frequently and dusting with flour as needed, until the sheet is very thin, about 1mm thick.
  14. Step 14
    Lay the rolled pasta sheet flat on a lightly floured surface. Use a pasta machine’s tagliatelle attachment or lightly flour the sheet, fold loosely into a log, and slice with a sharp knife into ¼ inch (0.6 cm) wide strips. Gently unroll/separate strands and toss lightly with flour/semolina to prevent sticking. Form into nests.
  15. Step 15
    Let fresh pasta nests sit at room temperature for 15-30 minutes to firm up slightly before cooking.
  16. Step 16
    In a very large pot, bring at least 6-8 liters (1.5-2 gallons) of heavily salted water to a rolling boil. Add fresh tagliatelle, stir immediately. Cook 2-4 minutes until al dente. Reserve ½ cup starchy pasta cooking water. Drain pasta quickly.
  17. Step 17
    Transfer drained pasta directly into the pot with the simmering bolognese sauce. Add a splash or two of reserved pasta water. Toss vigorously for 1-2 minutes over low heat until every strand is coated and the sauce emulsifies and clings to the pasta.
  18. Step 18
    Divide the pasta and bolognese among warm serving bowls. Garnish generously with freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese and a few torn fresh basil leaves. Serve immediately.
