1 small onion, peeled and cut in 1/4-inch dice
1 small carrot, trimmed, peeled and cut in 1/4-inch dice
1 small rib celery, trimmed, peeled and cut in 1/4-inch dice
2 ounces pancetta, cut in 1/4-inch dice
1/2 ounce dried porcini mushrooms (about 1/2 cup), rinsed and finely chopped
1/2 pound ground beef
1/2 pound ground pork
1/4 pound ground veal
3 1/2 cups plum tomato sauce (see Micro-Tip)

Steps:

Combine onion, carrot and celery in a 2 1/2-quart souffle dish with a tightly fitting lid. Cook, covered, at 100 percent power in a high-power oven for 4 minutes.
Remove from oven and uncover. Stir in pancetta, mushrooms and meats. Cook, covered, for 2 minutes. Uncover and stir well.
