Spaghetti Bolognese is my kids favourite dinner, they would happily eat it each week if I planned it. I usually double this recipe and either freeze it or plan to have it in a different meal later that week (left overs).
Ingredients
Method
- Heat oil in a large frypan/saucepan over medium heat
- Cook the onion until softened
- Add the minced beef and cook until just brown
- Break up mince lumps
- Add garlic, carrot, zucchini, celery and mushrooms to pan
- Cook stirring for 5 minutes or until vegetables have softened
- Pour in the wine and bring to the boil
- Add passata, tomatoes, stock, oregano and bay leaves, sitr through
- Simmer, uncovered, for 25-30 minutes or until thickened
- Remove bay leaves and serve.

The instructions don’t mention the zucchini? But I assume you put it in with the carrot etc.
I use a virtually identical recipe but I also add finely diced red capsicum. I use a whole zucchini and I grate rather than dice the carrot – it adds a lovely sweetness and is undetectable in the sauce!
So much healthier this way, and stacks cheaper as you’re using less meat. Winner! 🙂
Oops! Thanks for that! Yes, it’s so good to pad out the meat and get some more veggies into the family!
I have to take a meal for a hot pot and one lady can’t eat onions, garlic, capsicum and some herbs . Can anyone suggest what I could use to flavour it
