preparation
Step 1: Prepare the Ragu
- Chop the onion and finely chop the garlic.
- Heat oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add the ground beef and fry for 5 minutes until golden brown. Remove the minced meat from the pan and set it aside.
Step 2: Make the Ragu Sauce
- Add some more olive oil to the pan and fry the chopped onion for 5-7 minutes until golden brown and translucent.
- Add the chopped garlic and both thyme and oregano, fry for a further 2 minutes and then add the tomato puree. Cook for another 1 minute.
- Reduce the heat, add the fried minced meat back to the pan and pour in the milk and beef stock.
- Season with black pepper, cover with a lid and simmer for 45 minutes, stirring frequently.
Step 3: Make the Bechamel sauce
- Start the sauce by grating all three cheeses.
- Melt the butter in a large pan, add the flour and fry for 2-3 minutes until it smells nutty.
- Gradually add the milk, stirring constantly.
- Bring to the boil, reduce heat and simmer for 2 minutes until thickened.
- Add the mustard and Parmesan cheese, along with half the cheddar and mozzarella.
- Season with salt and pepper.
Step 4: Prepare the Pasta and Gratin
- Preheat the grill (or oven) to 200 degrees.
- Bring a large pot of salted water to the boil. Add the macaroni and cook for 1 minute less than the package instructions indicate.
- Drain the pasta and reserve a cup of the cooking water.
- Mix the pasta with the ragu and a splash of the reserved water, mixing well to coat all the pasta.
- Place the mixture in an oven dish and pour the cheese sauce over it.
- Sprinkle over the remaining mozzarella and cheddar and place under the grill (or in the oven) for 5-10 minutes until bubbly and golden brown. Enjoy your delicious meal!
