500 g of fusilli (an Italian pasta)
4-500 g of lean pork meat roughly minced, or, if preferred, lean turkey meat
two big onions
two spoonfuls of butter
two spoonfuls of olive oil
one deciliter of red, young, generous wine
one deciliter of coffee, neither too strong (like espresso), nor too weak
salt and pepper
a pinch of dried mint and sweet marjoram
Melt butter and oil in a large frying pan, add the onions chopped up fine, and wait for the onion, on a low flame, to almost melt without colouring. Add now the mincemeat, a pinch of salt and pepper, and let it colour, turning it every now and then, until the gravy begins to dry. Then add the wine in successive stages - and when the wine is finished continue with the coffee. Finally, add the dried mint and marjoram. stir to amalgamate all the ingredients. Serve this ragout with the pasta "al dente", that is to say, not "mushy". Serves 6 people.
