“I'm currently trying this recipe with a tripple sized portion, however I make some variations. "Permitted variants" *2 parts beef 1 part pork *bacon instead of panchetta *red wine "Unacceptable variantion" *1 garlic glove per part meat (3 total) *4” — a cook, 5.0★

“I managed to restrain myself and not add any peas or garlic bread - to be honest it would have been better without the mushrooms. I didn't have quite enough bacon, so some salt was needed. I usually use chopped tomatos, this time i blended them before addi” — a cook, 5.0★
