Directions:In heavy pan, melt butter with oil. Add garlic, pancetta, carrot, onion, and celery and cook over moderately low heat until onion is golden, about 5 minutes. Add beef and pork and cook over moderate heat until no link remains, about 8 minutes. Add mortadella and tomato paste and cook for 2 minutes. Add wine and cook, stirring, until reduced by half, about 3 minutes. Add tomatoes with their juices, the stock, and 1 tbsp each of the parsley and basil and bring to a boil. Season with salt and pepper and simmer over low heat, stirring occasionally, until very thick, about 1½ hours. Keep warm.
Cook the pasta. Drain.
Stir cream, remaining 2 tbsp parsley and 1 tbsp basil into the meat sauce. Season sauce as needed with salt & pepper, then add 2 cups sauce to spaghetti and toss. Top servings with additional sauce. |
