Ingredients
- 500 grams spaghetti pasta
- 3-4 garlic cloves, minced
- 1/2 onion, chopped
- 1 celery stalk, chopped
- 1 carrot, chopped
- 1 pound regular ground beef
- 700 grams tomato sauce
- 1 Tbsp olive oil
- 1-2 Tbsp butter
- 1 Tbsp tomato paste
- 1 tsp dried oregano
- 1 tsp dried basil
- 2 tsp sugar
-
2 Tbsp Red Boat fish sauce
- Parmesan cheese, grated
- Fresh basil, for garnish
Directions
Prepare the sauce:
In a large pot, heat olive oil and butter over medium heat.
- Once the butter has melted, add minced garlic, chopped onion, celery, and carrot.
- Cook for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are softened.
Cook the ground beef:
Add the ground beef to the pot with the vegetables.
- Cook for about 7 minutes, breaking up the meat with a spoon, until browned all over.
Add Tomatoes and Seasonings:
- Stir in the tomato paste and cook for 1-2 minutes.
- Add the tomato sauce, dried oregano, dried basil, sugar, and Red Boat fish sauce.
- Stir well to combine all the ingredients.
Simmer the sauce:
Cover the pot with a lid and reduce the heat to low.
- Let the sauce simmer for 30 minutes to an hour, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
While the sauce is simmering, cook the spaghetti pasta in a large pot of salted boiling water according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain the spaghetti and set aside.
Plate the cooked spaghetti and top with the prepared sauce. Garnish with freshly grated Parmesan cheese and fresh basil.
