Yield: 6 servings
pound pancetta, finely chopped
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more to drizzle
medium yellow onion, finely chopped
cloves garlic, cut into slivers
(28-ounce) can peeled whole San Marzano tomatoes and their juices
tablespoon roughly chopped parsley
teaspoon fresh oregano, finely chopped
Ravioli or rigatoni, cooked to al dente
1. Season the meats all over with salt and pepper.
2. In a large saucepan heat the olive oil over medium heat. When hot, add the onion, garlic, celery, fennel, carrot, thyme and 2 large pinches of salt. Cook until soft, about 5 minutes. Stir in the tomato paste and cook for 3 minutes more. Add the ground meat and brown over medium heat, stirring occasionally, for about 20 minutes. Deglaze the pan with red wine and cook at a lively simmer to reduce the wine, about 5 minutes. Crush the tomatoes with your hands and add them and the bay leaves. Simmer for 2 hours. Season to taste with salt and black pepper.
3. To serve, toss the ragu, parsley and oregano with al dente pasta. Divide among warm pasta bowls. Drizzle with extra-virgin olive oil, and serve immediately with Parmesan cheese.
