Easy Rigatoni Veal Bolognese
Tried & True Pasta Perfection
With minimal time to prepare, this new take on a classic Bolognese ensures ample time to enjoy the company of friends and family while the flavourful sauce reduces to perfection. It also adds some French Canadian flare with fresh, locally sourced Quebec ground veal.
Cooking Steps
Step 1
In a large pot over medium heat, add ground veal and cook for 5-6 minutes. Drain using a colander to remove fat. Reserve meat.
Step 2
Add canola oil and white onion to pot, cook for 2 minutes. Add carrot, cook for 1 minute. Add herbs, garlic, ground fennel and black pepper and cook for 2 more minutes.
Step 3
Deglaze by adding red wine and scraping bits off bottom of pot. Add cooked meat, cream, tomatoes, tomato paste, sugar and red wine vinegar. Bring to a boil and reduce to a simmer for one hour. Stir every 5-10 minutes. Add salt to taste.
Step 4
Cook rigatoni according to package instructions. Strain pasta and toss with sauce.
