Add olive oil and pancetta to the pot and sauté for 3 minutes. Add carrot, celery, onion and sauté for 5 minutes. Mix in ground beef and sauté for an additional 5 minutes. Make sure to mix well.

3

Add white wine and cook for a minute to allow the alcohol to evaporate. Stir in tomato puree and beef stock. Press START/CANCEL to end the setting.

4

Slow simmer the sauce. Set menu to SIMMER at LO and 6 hours of cooking time. Cover with lid and press START/CANCEL to begin simmering.

After approximately 5 hours and 40 minutes, begin cooking the pasta. In a separate large pot, boil water, add salt and cook the pasta according to the package instructions.
