Slow-Cooker : Bolognese Sauce

Method:

1. 1

   In a large skillet, combine the onion, celery, carrot, and olive oil and cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, until tender, about 10 minutes.

2. 2

   Add the meat and cook, stirring frequently, until it loses its pink color.

3. 3

   Add the milk. Increase heat to high and cook until the milk has evaporated.

4. 4

   Transfer the mixture to a 4- to 6-quart slow cooker. Return the skillet to the heat and add the tomato paste; cook over low heat to reduce its bitterness, about 5 minutes.

5. 5

   Add the tomato paste to the cooker, along with the tomatoes, salt, and nutmeg. Cook on low for 8 hours, or on high for 4 hours.
