SLOW COOKED BEEF RAGU WITH PENNE PASTA
Customer Reviews
Sink into pure comfort with our Slow Cooked Beef Ragu—a deeply satisfying Italian-inspired classic, made with care and cooked low and slow for hours to bring out full-bodied flavour in every bite.
This dish stars succulent beef chuck, slow-braised until fall-apart tender in a robust tomato and red wine sauce. The ragu is built from a base of caramelised onion, garlic, celery and carrot—traditional soffritto—then simmered gently with crushed tomatoes, tomato paste, bay leaf, and a blend of Italian herbs like oregano and basil to develop richness and depth.
The sauce is thick, hearty, and savoury with just the right balance of acidity, sweetness, and herbaceous warmth. It's tossed through al dente penne pasta, with its ridges perfectly catching the ragu so that every mouthful is coated in slow-cooked goodness. A scattering of fresh parsley adds brightness, and optional shaved parmesan offers a final layer of richness.
It’s the kind of meal that feels like home—comforting, filling, and crafted with patience. Whether you’re enjoying it for lunch, dinner or as part of your weekly prep, it’s a timeless dish that never disappoints.
