| 1. Heat the oil and butter in a large heavy-based saucepan. Add the onions and gently fry over medium heat for about 7 minutes until soft. | 2. Throw in the celery, carrots and garlic, and cook for another couple of minutes. | 3. Add the ground beef, a large pinch of salt, and grind over some pepper. Stir until the beef has lost its raw pink look. | 4. Add the bay leaves and milk, and simmer gently for about 10 minutes, until the meat has absorbed the milk. | 5. Now add about 1/3 teaspoon of nutmeg. | 6. Pour in the wine, then add the tomatoes with their juice, and stir thoroughly. | 7. Bring to the boil, then lower the heat and cook, uncovered, at a lazy simmer, with just an intermittent bubble breaking through the surface, for 3 hours or more. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
