Indulge in a culinary journey with Jamie Oliver's Pappardelle with Beef Ragu, a symphony of flavors that will tantalize your taste buds. This hearty dish features tender pappardelle pasta, braised beef in a rich and flavorful ragu sauce, and a medley of vegetables that add a burst of freshness. The beef ragu, simmered to perfection, is a symphony of aromatic herbs, spices, and succulent beef that melts in your mouth. Accompanying the pappardelle and ragu are two additional recipes: a classic Italian tomato sauce and a simple yet delicious green salad. These recipes, when combined, create a complete and satisfying meal that is perfect for any occasion.
Additional Recipes:
1. Jamie Oliver's Classic Italian Tomato Sauce: This versatile sauce is a staple in Italian cuisine, and Jamie Oliver's recipe delivers a perfect balance of tangy tomatoes, aromatic herbs, and a hint of sweetness.
2. Simple Green Salad: A refreshing and light complement to the richness of the pappardelle and beef ragu, this salad combines crisp lettuce, juicy tomatoes, and a zesty dressing.
GAME RAGU WITH PAPPARDELLE
The thing I love about this recipe is its flexibility. You can use different types of game and ask your butcher to prepare them for you. If you cut the meat big and chunky this makes a delicious stew, but if cut smaller, and cooked until it falls apart, it makes an amazing pasta sauce. I'm using pappardelle here, but any other robust pasta like rigatoni, tagliatelle or broken-up dried sheets of lasagne work well too. In Italy, this sort of stewed meat would traditionally have been eaten on toast for breakfast by hunters or manual laborers who would have been up at the crack of dawn. It's probably a bit more appropriate for lunch though! PS Red wine and game is a classic combination, but I'm using white wine here to lighten the flavors.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Pour a glug of olive oil into a casserole type pan and put it on the heat. Add the onion, carrots, rutabaga, rosemary, thyme and bay leaves and cook gently for 10 minutes. Stir in the meat and the flour, pour in the wine and add a generous pinch of salt and pepper. Pour in the stock, there should be enough to just cover the meat. Bring to a gentle boil, put a lid on and place in the preheated oven for 1 1/2 hours, until the meat falls apart easily.
- When the stew looks good, bring a very large pan of salted water to the boil and stir in the pappardelle. Cook according to the package instructions.
- While the pasta's cooking, you can get your ragu sauce rockin' and rollin'! Remove the bay leaves from the sauce and add the butter to it. Beat in half the Parmesan and half the orange zest, just a hint will make all the difference. Place the lid on top. Pick and chop your parsley leaves now, you want them to be nice and fresh, with as much color and flavor as possible, so don't do this any earlier.
- Drain the pasta in a colander, reserving some of the cooking water. Get everyone around the table, then toss the pasta with the sauce and the chopped parsley (you may have to do this in batches), adding some of the reserved cooking water if need be, to make the sauce silky and loose - very important for good texture. Taste and correct the seasoning. Serve with the remaining grated Parmesan and orange zest sprinkled over and a drizzle of good extra-virgin olive oil. What an incredible pasta dish!

Shred the meat in the slow cooker with two forks, discarding any large pieces of fat. Discard the rosemary sprig and parmesan rind.

Steps:
- Season beef with salt and pepper to taste. Place an uncovered pressure cooker or oven-proof Dutch oven over medium-high heat, and add olive oil. When oil is hot, add beef. Stir until beef is well browned on all sides, about 5 minutes. Add rosemary and sage sprigs, onion, garlic, carrot and celery. Reduce heat to medium-low and sauté until vegetables are softened, about 5 minutes.

Secure lid and pressure gauge of pressure cooker, and follow manufacturer's instructions to bring contents of pot to a simmer. Reduce heat to low, and simmer for 45 minutes. If using Dutch oven, simmer, covered, in a 275-degree oven, or on the stove over low heat, for 3 to 3 1/2 hours.
- Place a large pot of lightly salted water over high heat to bring to a boil. Remove pressure cooker from heat, or Dutch oven from oven. After pressure has dropped in pressure cooker, follow manufacturer's instructions to remove lid. Using two forks, finely shred meat and vegetables. Discard herb stems. Loosely cover pan and return it to low heat to keep warm.
- Add pappardelle to boiling water. As it cooks, scoop out 1/2 cup water and reserve. Cook pasta to taste, then drain well. Return pasta to pot, and add butter and 1/4 cup Parmigiano-Reggiano; mix gently until butter has melted. Add a little reserved cooking water to loosen.

PAPPARDELLE WITH MIXED WILD MUSHROOMS
These days there seems to be more and more of a choice of wild mushrooms in the supermarkets. They are not always stored and displayed as I think they should be - I don't like sweaty mushrooms in plastic containers - but I'm sure things will get better. Even as a chef I am surprised to see changerelles and black trumpets popping up throughout the year, as well as the more predictable cremini, shiitake, morel, button and oyster mushrooms. There is a lot of choice.

Steps:
- Brush off any dirt from the mushrooms with a pastry brush or a dish towel. Slice the mushrooms thinly, but tear girolles, chanterelles and blewits in half. Put the olive oil in a very hot frying pan and add the mushrooms. Let them fry fast, tossing once or twice, then add the garlic and chilli with a pinch of salt (it is very important to season mushrooms lightly, as a little really brings out the flavor). Continue to fry fast for 4-5 minutes, tossing regularly. Then turn the heat off and squeeze in the lemon juice. Toss and season to taste.
- Meanwhile cook the pasta in boiling salted water until al dente. Add to the mushrooms, with the Parmesan, parsley and butter. Toss gently, coating the pasta with the mushrooms and their flavor. Serve, scraping out all of the last bits of mushroom from the pan, and sprinkle with a little extra parsley and Parmesan.

- Use a good quality red wine: The wine will add depth of flavor to the ragu. Look for a wine that is full-bodied and has a good balance of acidity and tannins.
- Simmer the ragu for at least 2 hours: This allows the flavors to meld and develop. The longer you simmer the ragu, the better it will taste.
