Super Fast (Lazy Spec) Bolognese Sauce



Simple, quick to make... I wasn't even going to even blog it, but why not? This can be easily knocked up by anyone short on time. Doesn't involve much as you can see, it's all in pot and walk off. Oh, my new Ikea mat is so cool aye?

Ingredients:
  • 400~500 grams of minced beef (the leaner then better)
  • Herbs of all sorts (I pretty much just threw in anything I found)
  • Jar of bolognese sauce
  • 1x tin of chopped tomatoes (not pictured)
  • 2x bay leaves
  • 1x cup of stock
  • 1x cup of red wine (optional)
  • 2x teaspoons of sugar
  • 1x teaspoon of salt (optional and if low salt stock is used)
  • Pepper to taste
Method:
Heat up a pan/pot and jam all the herbs, spices, with a tablespoon of sugar, immediate add in the meat and briefly. Add in wine to deglaze the pot, then jam everything else in, reduce heat to around 25% and walk off. Occasionally check if kitchen is on fire.

Serve with your favourite pasta, I usually prefer wholemeal penne :)

Cost: $10? (depends what you have at home)
Serves: 8
Time: 30 minutes

Enjoy :)
