Pasta Bolognese - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    2 tablespoons butter
    1/4 lb sliced bacon (cut 1/4 inch slices)
    1 onion, chopped
    1 lb ground beef
    1 cup low sodium beef broth
    1/2 cup dry white wine
    2 tablespoons tomato paste
    1/2 teaspoon oregano, dried
    3/4 teaspoon salt
    1/4 teaspoon black pepper
    1/2 cup heavy cream
    3/4 lb spaghetti
    2 tablespoons chopped parsley (I use dried)
Preparation
    In large frying pan, heat butter and bacon over moderately low heat.
    Cook until bacon renders some fat (approximately 3 minutes).
    Add onion and stir approximately 3 minutes.
    Stir in ground beef and cook until meat is no longer pink.
    Add broth, wine, tomato paste, oregano, salt and pepper.
    Simmer, stirring occasionally, until sauce thickens (25-30 minutes).
    Stir in cream and remove from heat.
    In the meantime -- cook spaghetti until almost done (12 minutes).
    Drain and toss with sauce and parsley.
