Bolognese Sauce
This is exceptionally yummy. I often have it just with a baked potato, but you can be more traditional and have it on rice pasta (best got from your local Asian supply shop). Serve with a nice crisp garden salad, and a sprinkle of parmesan cheese.
500g minced beef 1 large onion, chopped 1 garlic clove, crushed 1 large carrot, grated 4 large tomatoes or 6 –8 smaller ones, peeled and chopped 1/2 cup tomato sauce (homemade is great but anything will do 2 tbsp tomato paste 1/4 cup sherry or red wine 1 tsp fresh basil, chopped, or 1/2 tsp dried 1 tbsp chopped fresh parsley salt and pepper to taste
Cook mince, onion and garlic in a little oil over moderate to high heat in a heavy frying pan. Cook until juices evaporate and the meat browns. Add carrot, reduce heat and cook, stirring for a couple of minutes.
Add tomatoes, tomato paste, tomato sauce, sherry or wine and herbs, and mix well.
Bring to the boil then reduce heat to simmer, covered, for 30 –40 minutes.
