I fiddled around with the original copy cat recipe until I got it where I wanted it and it tastes even better. Add more jelly and onion soup, if desired, but I found that more was too much.

The Actual Olive Garden Bolognese Sauce Recipe (Spaghetti Sauce) image

This is the actual Olive Garden bolognese (spaghetti sauce) recipe that I got from the Olive Garden website. Please don't leave a feedback saying how this recipe, "Is soooo much better than Olive Garden's", or how it is, "Close to Olive Garden's, but no cigar". It IS Olive Garden's recipe. Now we just have to figure out how they make their breadsticks! I like to throw the cooked veggies in the blender so my son doesn't realize that they're in there! ;)

Time 1h45m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 tablespoons olive oil
1 onion, finely chopped
1 carrot, finely chopped
1 celery, finely chopped
2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
1/2 lb ground beef
6 ounces Italian sausage, skinned
1 cup red wine
28 ounces crushed tomatoes, chopped
1 teaspoon fresh rosemary, chopped (or 1/4 tsp dry)
1 teaspoon fresh sage, chopped (or 1/4 tsp dry)
salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Heat oil in a large pan. Add celery, carrot, onion, and garlic and cook about 5 minutes.
  • Add meat and cook 10 minutes over medium heat, stirring occasionally.
  • Deglaze pan with wine, let it reduce.
  • Add tomatoes and remaining ingredients and stir, simmer for about 1 hour.
  • Serve over fresh, hot pasta.

Tips:

  • Use ripe, flavorful tomatoes. This is the key to a great sauce. If you can, use fresh tomatoes from the garden or farmers market. Otherwise, look for canned whole tomatoes that are packed in tomato juice, not water.
  • Sauté the vegetables before adding the tomatoes. This will help to caramelize the vegetables and bring out their sweetness.
  • Use a variety of herbs and spices. Italian seasoning is a good starting point, but you can also add oregano, basil, thyme, rosemary, garlic powder, onion powder, and red pepper flakes to taste.
  • Simmer the sauce for at least 30 minutes. This will allow the flavors to meld and develop.
  • Serve the sauce with your favorite pasta. Spaghetti is a classic choice, but you can also use penne, rigatoni, or any other type of pasta that you like.

Conclusion:

This Olive Garden spaghetti sauce is a delicious and easy-to-make recipe that is perfect for a weeknight meal. With just a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a flavorful sauce that will rival the one from your favorite Italian restaurant. So next time you're craving a hearty bowl of spaghetti, give this recipe a try.
