Step cooking

1. Peel one middle head of onion, chop the onion into small cubes.
   
2. Wash 2 stalks of celery, cut the stems first into strips and then into small cubes. Experienced cooks do not recommend replacing the celery stalk with its root crop, as the root has a very intense aroma that spoils the delicate taste of the sauce.
   
3. Wash and peel 1 medium carrot, grate the vegetable on a medium or fine grater.
   
4. Wash and dry with a paper towel 300 grams of pork pulp and 300 grams of beef tenderloin. Cut the meat into medium-sized pieces, pass through the middle grill of the meat grinder into a deep bowl, stir the minced meat.
   
5. Heat a pan with 40 ml of any vegetable oil. Use odorless deodorized oil. The classic recipe uses olive oil. Put onion slices in heated oil, fry the vegetable over medium heat with occasional stirring until the onions are transparent (or light golden) for about 4-6 minutes.
   
6. Add chopped celery stalks to the pan. Fry over medium heat for about 3 minutes, stirring the mass with a cooking spatula.
   
7. Put the grated carrots to the mixture of onions and celery, continue to fry, constantly stirring the mixture for another 4 minutes. Remove from heat.
   
8. Pour 40 ml of vegetable oil into another large-capacity pan, heat the pan. Put minced meat in it. Fry until tender with constant stirring, breaking large pieces of minced meat with a spatula during cooking. At the end of cooking, salt and pepper the minced meat to taste.
   
9. Add the minced vegetable mixture from the first pan and 400 grams of canned slices of tomatoes in your own juice, mix the contents of the pan thoroughly.
   
10. Pour 125 ml of dry red wine into the sauce. If children will eat the sauce or you do not drink alcohol, replace the wine with 125 ml of drinking water. Cover the pan, reduce heat to a minimum, simmer for 1 hour.
    

This meat sauce, prepared according to the classic recipe, goes well with any pasta. When serving, sprinkle the sauce with finely grated Parmesan cheese and chopped basil.
