Bolognaise sauce
1/2 lb. ground chuck
2 tbsp chopped onion, defrosted
1/2 tsp garlic
tomato paste
salt
red pepper
oregano
basil
pomegranate seeds
Rinsed beef thoroughly to get icky smell out. Browned with onion and garlic. Added spices and tomato paste with water. Simmered for a good bit.
Verdict: Too bland. Might have rinsed beef too much, tho more likely I didn't have enough onion. Might also want to brown meat with a sweetener or fruity brown sauce to initiate Maillard reactions. Simmer until tomato sauce is browner. Also, salt the damn pasta.
