Directions

1. To make the beef ragu pasta: Cook the spaghetti according to package directions; drain and return to the pot.

2. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion, garlic, bell pepper, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon freshly cracked pepper and cook, stirring frequently, until the onion is soft. Count 5 to 7 minutes.

3. Add ground beef to the skillet breaking up with a wooden spoon, and cook until browned 3 to 5 minutes.

4. Add the tomato paste and cook until slightly darkened for 1 minute. Add the tomatoes and their juice and simmer until the liquid is slightly thickened about 4 to 5 minutes. Adjust seasoning if necessary.

5. Finally, add the sauce to the spaghetti and toss to combine. Serve the beef ragu spaghetti sprinkled with parsley and grated cheese.

Tips: You can add dry white wine or broth to the beef ragû sauce, and simmer a few minutes longer to thicken the sauce to the desired consistency. You can replace parsley with basil.
