Directions
- Heat the oil in a medium saucepan over medium-high. Add the onion and cook until soft, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook 2 minutes more. Add the beef and veal and cook, stirring, and breaking the meat up using a wooden spoon until browned, about 5 minutes. Add the tomato paste and cook 2 minutes, then add the red wine. Cook until reduced, about 3 minutes, then stir in the milk and tomatoes. Cook for 1 hour, then season with salt and pepper. Stir in the butter until melted, then, using a hand blender or stand blender, purée until slightly smooth but still chunky. Keep the sauce warm.
- Bring a large saucepan of generously salted water to a boil. Add the spaghetti and cook until al dente, about 8 minutes. Drain, and add to the saucepan with the sauce. Serve with parmesan cheese.
