2

In a large heavy pot, add oil, onion, garlic and the mix of meat.

Allow to cook on medium high for approximately 10 minutes. Add the wine.
4

Allow wine to evaporate and then remove the garlic. Add the tomato puree and peeled tomatoes. (add parsley sprigs now, option one)
5

Bring to a boil and then turn down and keep a gentle boil for at least two hours. Once the ragù has thickened, add basil (option two) and salt.
6

Remove the meat and any herbs from the sauce. This is served as a second plate. The ragù can be used over pasta as a first, and enough left over for use in other dishes throughout the week.
