What you need
oz ground beef
tbsp butter, plus one extra Tbsp to mix with the cooked pasta
yellow onion, large, finely chopped
clove fresh garlic, finely chopped
fresh sage, finely chopped
fl oz red wine, most red wines will work great in this recipe
tsp bouillon, I use the organic vegetable version plus 100 ml water (or use 100 ml of stock instead). I like to use this when I only need small amounts of stock or broth.
tbsp tomato paste
fresh parsley leaves, finely chopped
oz applesauce, one jar
Instructions
1 Over medium high heat, allow the butter to melt, then add the ground beef and break it apart into small pieces. Cook until starting to brown. 2 Add the onion, carrot, garlic and sage and cook for a couple of minutes. 3 Add the red wine, Better Than Bouillon, water and the tomato paste and allow to simmer for about 20 minutes. 4 In the meantime, boil the pasta in salted water until al dente. Drain and stir with one Tbsp of butter until the butter is melted. 5 Add the parsley to the ground beef mixture and season to taste with salt and pepper. 6 Serve in pasta bowls, adding pasta first, then ground beef mixture and finally the applesauce on the side. Sprinkle with freshly grated gruyère and more fresh, chopped parsley.View original recipe
