Method

Step 1

This makes four portions of bolognese. If you are making this meal for more than one person, cook 50g of pasta per portion.

Step 2

Heat a large sauce pan over medium heat. Add olive oil, chopped onion, garlic, celery, and carrot and cook, stirring occasionally until tender about 8-10 minutes.

Step 3

Add the minced beef and Italian seasonings. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper. Stir continuously, breaking up the clumps of mince until it's brown all over, about 5 minutes.

Step 4

Add the crumbled stock cube and 100ml water and the tomatoes. Increase heat to high and let it bubble for a minute then reduce to a simmer. Simmer for 20mins stirring occasionally.

Step 5

Ten minutes before it's ready, cook spaghetti according to the instructions on the pack.

Step 6

Divide the bolognese sauce into four portions, cool and freeze three for another day. Eat the remaining portion with the spaghetti.
