3 cloves garlic, minced
6 crushed tomatoes
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon dried basil
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
Salt and black pepper to taste

Method
- Cook the Pasta:
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the spaghetti according to the package instructions until done.
- Make the Bolognese Sauce:
- Dice the sausages into small pieces
- In a large skillet or saucepan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onions.
- Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
- Increase the heat to medium-high, add the chopped sausages, and cook until browned, breaking it up with a spoon as it cooks.
- Add Tomatoes and Seasonings:
- Add the crushed tomatoes, tomato paste, oregano, basil, thyme, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to combine.
- Simmer the Sauce:
- Pour in the milk and broth. Bring the mixture to a simmer, then reduce the heat to low, cover the pan, and let it simmer for at least 1 hour, stirring occasionally. The longer it simmers, the richer the flavors will be.
- Adjust Seasoning:
- Taste the sauce and adjust the seasoning if necessary. If it’s too thick, you can add a little more broth.
- Serve:
- Spoon the Bolognese sauce over the cooked spaghetti. Garnish with grated Parmesan cheese and fresh basil or parsley if desired.
- Enjoy:
- Serve the Spaghetti Bolognese hot, and enjoy this classic and comforting Italian dish.
