Step by Step guide

Step 1

Heat the oil in a large skillet and sauté the finely chopped onion and garlic over medium heat for 5 minutes until the onion is soft. Add the ground beef and cook over high heat until browned. Add the tomatoes, wine, broth, bay leaf, and herbs. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat, and simmer for 40 minutes. Season with salt.

Step 2

Preheat the oven to 356°F. Meanwhile, cook the pasta in a large pot of boiling water, then drain. Spread part of the pasta evenly on the bottom of a greased baking dish. Pour half of the lightly beaten eggs on top and cover with the meat sauce.
