A great bolognese sauce can make your pasta dish a very special dinner! If you get the sauce wrong then you might as well give the pasta to the dog!
A great bolognese sauce will taste great on the day and out of this world the day after!
This is a great recipe and a little different that the ones that I have made in the past. Delicious! You can use any pasta you like, I chose ravioli this time around.
Enjoy
