Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F and lightly coat a 9 × 13-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
  2. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat and sauté the onion and garlic for 7 to 8 minutes. Add the carrot and celery and cook for 5 minutes. Add the ground beef and cook, stirring to break up the meat, until no longer pink. Add the tomatoes, parsley, tomato paste, salt, pepper, and sugar. Cook for 30 minutes.
  3. While the sauce is cooking, bring a large pot of water to a boil, add the pappardelle, and cook until al dente. Drain, and reserve.
  4. Add the cream and then the Pecorino Romano to the sauce. Toss the sauce with the cooked pasta and place in the baking dish. Top with the mozzarella and bake for 30 minutes. Serve.
