Easy Spag Bol

Hello!

Serves 4
30 minutes
Difficulty Easy
11 Ingredients

This simple tomato beef sauce has been a winner in my household for a long time. You may wish to add chilli or Parmesan cheese, and top with a basil leaf for presentation.

Ingredients (serves 4)

500g beef mince
2 cloves diced garlic
2 diced onions
1/8 cup olive oil
Splash worcestershire sauce
Splash soy Sauce
1 tsp celery salt
1/2 tsp pepper
2 basil stalks
500g spaghetti
2 bottles tomato passata

Method

Place oil in deep saucepan, and heat. Add mince meat and stir until slightly browned.
Add garlic and onion, and cook stirring occasionally.
Add celery salt and pepper, tomato passata, sauces and basil. Bring to boil, stir, then simmer until reduced.
Make sure you cook your pasta al dente and top with mince sauce minus the basil stalk.

I’ve never tried soy sauce in my Bolognese sauce. I’m so curious to give it a go.
