SPAGHETTI WITH PANCETTA AND RICOTTA

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     main-dish

Time 20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

Kosher salt
12 ounces spaghetti
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
4 ounces diced pancetta
1 tablespoon very coarsely ground pepper
1/2 cup whole-milk ricotta cheese
1/4 cup grated pecorino cheese

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the spaghetti and cook as the label directs for al dente. Reserve 1 1/4 cups cooking water and then drain.
  • Meanwhile, combine the olive oil and pancetta in a large wide pot over medium-high heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the pancetta is golden brown and crisp, 3 to 5 minutes. Stir in 1 teaspoon pepper, then add 3/4 cup of the reserved cooking water and the spaghetti, tossing until combined. Stir in the ricotta and 2 tablespoons pecorino, tossing constantly to evenly coat. (The ricotta will seem thick at first, but as it combines with the hot cooking water it will create a creamy sauce.) Add more cooking water a few tablespoons at a time if the sauce is too thick or dry. Season with salt.
  • Divide the spaghetti among bowls. Sprinkle with the remaining 2 tablespoons pecorino and 2 teaspoons pepper.

Categories     main-dish

Time 55m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 medium onion, coarsely chopped
2 garlic cloves, peeled and coarsely chopped
1 celery stalk, coarsely chopped
1 carrot, coarsely chopped
1 pound ground chuck beef
One 28-ounce can crushed tomatoes
1/4 cup flat-leaf Italian parsley, chopped
8 fresh basil leaves, chopped
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup freshly grated Pecorino Romano

Steps:

  • In a large skillet heat the olive oil. When almost smoking, add the onion and garlic and saute over medium heat until the onions become very soft, about 8 minutes. Add the celery and carrot and saute for 5 minutes. Raise heat to high and add the ground beef. Saute, stirring frequently and breaking up any large lumps and cook until meat is no longer pink, about 10 minutes. Add the tomatoes, parsley and basil and cook over medium low heat until the sauce thickens. Season with salt and pepper. This will take approximately 1/2 hour. Finish bolognese with Pecorino Romano.

Provided by MarraMamba

Categories     < 60 Mins

Time 35m

Yield 1 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 olive oil
60 g onions, chopped
1 garlic clove, crushed
1/4 pepper, sliced
90 g lean ground beef
1 plum tomato, chopped
1 tablespoon tomato puree
1 pinch dried oregano
1 pinch dried parsley
60 g pasta
30 g ricotta cheese
1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • Heat the oil in a non-stick pan and cook the onion, garlic and pepper until slightly softened. Add the minced beef, turn up the heat and continue to cook until the beef is browned through.
  • Add the chopped tomato, tomato puree and herbs, turn down the heat and simmer for 20 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, cook the pasta following package instructions.
  • Stir the ricotta cheese into the beef mix and serve this with the pasta, sprinkling with Parmesan cheese before serving.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: The better the ingredients, the better the pasta will be. This means using fresh, organic vegetables, high-quality olive oil, and flavorful cheeses.
  • Don't overcook the pasta: Pasta should be cooked al dente, meaning it should be slightly firm to the bite. Overcooked pasta will be mushy and unpleasant.
  • Use a large pot: When cooking pasta, it's important to use a large pot so that the pasta has plenty of room to move around. This will help prevent the pasta from sticking together.
  • Season the water: Before you add the pasta to the pot, season the water with salt. This will help flavor the pasta as it cooks.
  • Don't rinse the pasta: After you drain the pasta, don't rinse it with water. Rinsing the pasta will remove the starch, which is what helps the sauce stick to the pasta.
  • Use a flavorful sauce: The sauce is what really makes pasta special. Be sure to use a sauce that is flavorful and packed with umami.
  • Serve the pasta immediately: Pasta is best served immediately after it's cooked. This is when it's at its most flavorful and al dente.
