Method
- Step 1: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the finely chopped onion and minced garlic, sautéing until softened and fragrant.
- Step 2: Add the ground beef to the skillet, breaking it apart with a wooden spoon. Cook until browned, then pour in the red wine and let it reduce by half.
- Step 3: Stir in the canned tomatoes and season with salt and pepper. Let the ragu simmer for 15 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld while you cook the beef pasta according to package instructions until al dente.
- Step 4: Drain the pasta and combine it with the ragu in the skillet. Toss to coat, adding a splash of pasta cooking water if needed for creaminess. Serve hot, garnished with fresh basil and grated Parmesan cheese.
