📝 Preparation Steps
1
Cook the pasta according to package directions. While the water is boiling and pasta is cooking, you can prepare the meat sauce.
2
Add the ground beef to a large nonstick skillet and brown over medium high heat until it's no longer pink; approximately ⏱️ 8-10 minutes.
3
Chop the carrots, celery and onions into a very small dice; then add them to the ground beef and cook for another ⏱️ 2-3 minutes.
4
Add the tomatoes and salt; then lower heat to low. Cover the pan with a lid and allow to simmer until the pasta is finished cooking.
5
Drain the water from the pasta; then add it back to the pot along with the cooked meat sauce. Toss to coat, garnish with some grated Pecorino Romano cheese (optional) and serve hot.
