Maccheroni con il sugo di capra

Maccheroni con il sugo di capra is a traditional Calabrian dish of goat sauce mixed with maccheroni pasta. The sauce is prepared with goat meat and tomato passata as the main ingredients, complemented with onion and garlic, and seasoned with bay leaves, oregano, black pepper, and salt. White wine is also included, but its role is to help eliminate the strong smell of the meat. The sauce is served with maccheroni (macaroni) pasta, but often other kinds of pasta are also used. If the meat is left in chunks, they are usually served on the side, and the pasta is mixed with the sauce. Before serving, the dish is usually sprinkled with goat cheese.
