For a richer flavor, consider adding a tablespoon of tomato paste along with the diced tomatoes and tomato sauce. If you prefer a smoother sauce, use an immersion blender to partially blend the ragu before adding the cream. Serve with a generous grating of Parmesan cheese and a sprinkle of fresh parsley for an extra touch of flavor.
