Step 4: Add Broth & Milk

These liquids transform your sauce into a silky, luscious ragù.

  1. Pour in the beef broth.
  2. Add milk or cream — this softens the tomatoes and makes the sauce smoother.
  3. Add oregano, basil, bay leaf, or any spices you prefer.

Step 5: Simmer Low & Slow

This is where the magic happens.

  1. Reduce heat to low.
  2. Simmer uncovered for 30–60 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  3. The sauce will thicken and develop a deep, savory flavor.

The longer it simmers, the better the taste!


Step 6: Cook the Spaghetti

  1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
  2. Cook spaghetti according to package instructions until al dente.
  3. Drain but do not rinse (the starch helps the sauce stick).

Step 7: Bring It All Together

  1. Add a spoonful of Bolognese sauce to the drained pasta and toss—this helps the flavor soak in.
  2. Serve on plates.
  3. Spoon extra sauce on top.
  4. Finish with Parmesan and fresh parsley.

🍽️ Tips for the Best Spaghetti Bolognese

  • Use two meats: Beef + pork gives the richest flavor.
  • Don’t skip the milk: It creates authentic creaminess.
  • Simmer gently: Slow cooking turns simple ingredients into something magical.
  • Try fresh spaghetti for a softer, silkier experience.
