  • Despite growing up in an Irish family, at least once a week we channeled our inner Italian and enjoyed this Italian classic. This is my version of a basic Bolognese sauce and is one of the first things I learnt to cook. Check out the recipe: www.donalskehan...

    I always thought the subtext of these videos was that Donal is a teenager who is amazingly good at cooking for his age. Now I realize he's a normal adult who is old enough to get married. I FEEL SO OLD. *weeping*

    Wow! Serious debate on the bolognese! This I should have pointed out is MY version of the authentic spaghetti bolognese- it's a tomato based meat sauce and it's bloomin' delicious! Be nice to each other my friends! :) 💃🏼

      +Donal Skehan People take recipes too literally, which is TOTALLY counter intuitive to being a chef. Even the Bolognese recipe we have today is an iteration of some recipe that was probably as barebones as "meat and tomatoes" when it was first invented. So, if you want to get technical, none of you are doing it right either, based on the premise that no one really knows the true origin of the Bolognese. I am Italian as well, and I've seen many an "Italian" naysayer totally screw up the traditional recipe themselves. For my tastes, I use three parts beef, veal and pork. Celery, Onion, and carrot. Tomato paste, and red wine. I throw in a sprig of rosemary and a bay leaf for flavor, and salt and pepper to taste. Personally, I find that a more subdued sauce really highlights the heartiness of the bolognese, so over-abundance of ingredients is a bad move and robs the sauce of its potential. And if you have a problem with my recipe, or Donal's, then you're totally missing the point. A good bolognese doesn't adhere to a specific recipe, it adheres to a mentality, of making good food with few ingredients.

      Sure can make "bolognese sound" as one prefer even with differents meats ... but the sauce in the video looks pretty strange mass that steady on the spaghetti :-P

    People do not understand that making food is think outside the box and be creative with the food
    I noticed alot of comments that says its not the original bolognese blah blah blah .. Hey calm down its donal skehan's.
    And of course donal this would be delicious with hot chilly yummy .

  • @xRawrBawr
    @xRawrBawr 8 лет назад +1

    my SB recipe:
    In a large saucepan: olive oil, sweat 1 diced onion, brown the mince, italian herbs, pinch of cinnamon, 1 heaped tbls tomato puré, 1 tin of tomatoes, 1 tin whole button mushrooms (for extra moist mushrooms that explode when you bite them), 1 celery chopped 1cm. Simmer for 1-2 hours or until the it's the consistency you like. Easy peasy. I like to add a few bits of basil finely chopped on top for presentation.

We love seeing your face! And ditto on the "Welcome to America" comments scattered below. My husband and I recently moved to LA from Tennessee and that was a big move for us. Many blessings on your new life here! Let us know if we can do anything to help y'all adjust ;)

    Nice sauce Donal. My first Bolognese was years ago out of Marcella Hazan’s book. By doing that one I went ahead and did what I liked as a meat sauce. Believe me hers was delicious, I just wanted something somewhat more expedient. Yours fits the bill for sure.

    If you wonder why Italians get angry when they see this kind of videos on RUclips pretending to show how to do the authentic Italian cucine is because our cucine is a really big part of our culture and we are really proud of it. So seeing someone messing up a Italian receipt is kind of annoying
