The best spaghetti Bolognese ever...







Ingredients


  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 garlic clove chopped
  • 2 capsicums diced
  • 1 large brown onion diced
  • 1 carrot grated
  • 2 tins of diced tomato
  • 1 tin of tomato paste
  • 1 vegetable stock cube
  • 1 teaspoon raw sugar
  • 1 tin strained lentils
  • 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
  • 1 teaspoon Italian herbs
  • 1/2 teaspoon of garlic granules
  • 3 Bay leaves
  • Spaghetti
  • Parmesan cheese (to serve) 


Method

  1. Heat oil in a saucepan until hot
  2. Add onion, capsicum and garlic and cook until they soften
  3. Add carrot, tinned tomatoes and tomato paste and cook until simmering
  4. Add in the rest of the ingredients and stir through. 
  5. Leave to simmer until thoroughly cooked and flavours have mixed through
  6. Boil water and add spaghetti
  7. Plate up spaghetti and add desired amount of bolognese sauce 
  8. Sprinkle with parmesan cheese
  9. Enjoy!


This was the best thing I have eaten in a lonnnng time! Soooo good! If you're not into the vego thing you could use mince instead of lentils, just fry it off when you do the onion and if you're vegan leave out the parma at the end. We use organic tin tomatoes, tomato paste and spaghetti which you can get anywhere but we have found are much cheaper at Aldi. 
Hope you enjoy guys!
