Servings: persons

2 tbsp olive oil
2 None onions, finely chopped
4 None carrots, finely chopped
2 None celery sticks, trimmed and finely chopped
3 cloves garlic, crushed
2 lbs ground beef
1/4 cup tomato paste
1/2 cup dry red wine

2 tbsp fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves

1
Heat oil in a large skillet on medium heat. Cook onion, carrot, celery and garlic, stirring, for 5 mins or until beginning to soften.
2
Increase heat to high and add the beef. Cook, breaking it up with a wooden spoon, for 8 mins or until browned. Add the tomato paste and wine and cook until the wine evaporates. Add the tomatoes and bay leaf; season to taste. Reduce heat to low; simmer for 45 mins until the sauce has thickened.

Bake for 50 mins until the rosti top is golden. Sprinkle with parsley.

Tips for the best results

Read through all the steps once before you start and measure out your ingredients first — it makes everything go more smoothly.
Preheat the oven fully and bake on the middle rack for the most even results.
Check for doneness a few minutes early — a toothpick in the center should come out with just a few moist crumbs.
Let it cool before slicing so it sets properly and holds its shape.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within a few days.

Variations & substitutions

Use a neutral oil or a plant-based spread in place of butter for a dairy-free version.
