spaghetti bolognese

Italian meat sauce

Spaghetti bolognese is a dish of spaghetti topped with a meat-based sauce, typically made with ground beef, tomatoes, onions, and herbs.

The dish is a staple of casual Italian-style cooking worldwide, though Italians traditionally serve the ragù with tagliatelle rather than spaghetti.

Often shortened to spag bol in British and Australian English: We're having spag bol for dinner.
