Procedure
Wash the vegetables, peel the carrot and wash it thoroughly. Wash the celery. Cut the carrot and celery into pieces and then obtain a fine chop with the help of an electric blender. Now prepare your herbs: in a sterile gauze gather the sage, rosemary, bay leaf and garlic clove. Seal the end of the gauze with a kitchen string.
Brown the minced meat in a very hot casserole, taking care to crumble the mince with a wooden spoon and to maintain a sustained flame.
Add the tomato concentrate, the vegetable chop and the gauze of herbs to the mince, which in the meantime will have perfectly browned. Those who wish can also add a shallot. Adjust with salt and pepper and flavor with spices to taste, such as cinnamon and nutmeg. Cover the mince with white wine (or red) and bring to a boil.
Once boiling, lower the heat and cook on a very low heat for about 1 and a half hours, until the liquid has partially dried up. It is recommended to check the cooking often and, if necessary, to add more liquid. The light turkey ragù is ready to be consumed as desired.
