# Ingredients:
01 -
Mix of ground beef, pork, or veal
02 -
Olive oil
03 -
Finely chopped onion
04 -
Grated or finely diced carrot
05 -
Finely chopped celery
06 -
Minced garlic
07 -
Dry white wine
08 -
Milk or heavy cream
09 -
Pinch of nutmeg
10 -
Salt to taste
11 -
Pepper to taste

Freshly grated Parmesan cheese
# Instructions:
01 -
Heat olive oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add the onion, carrot, and celery, and cook until softened and fragrant, about 5-7 minutes.
02 -
Add the ground meat to the pan and cook until browned and no longer pink. Break up the meat as it cooks to ensure even crumbling.
03 -
Pour in the white wine and stir, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Cook until most of the wine has evaporated, about 3-5 minutes.
04 -
Stir in the milk or cream and bring to a simmer. Add a pinch of nutmeg, and season with salt and pepper to taste. Let the sauce cook gently over low heat for 30-45 minutes, stirring occasionally to maintain a creamy consistency.
05 -
Once the sauce is thickened to your liking, stir in the freshly grated Parmesan cheese until melted and fully incorporated.
06 -
Serve hot over your preferred pasta, and enjoy the creamy sauce.
# Notes:
01 -
Letting the sauce simmer on low heat allows flavors to fully develop.
02 -
Customize the dish by using ground turkey or chicken for a lighter version or plant-based milk for a dairy-free option.
03 -
This sauce is freezer-friendly for convenient meal prep.
04 -
Freshly grated Parmesan enhances flavor and melts better than pre-grated cheese.
