SPAGHETTI BOLOGNESE RECIPE



So i searched for  Nigerian spaghetti bolognese on Google and i saw this post. Enjoy reading it.

Ingredients:

Olive oil or vegetable oil
Onions
Garlic
Ground beef (You need a lot but I used little cos I am cutting down on my beef intake)
Chopped Fresh tomatoes (I had blended ones so I used it like that)
Tomato paste (tin tomato)
Curry
Thyme
Nutmeg
Bay leaf (little)
Mint leaves (little)
Carrots (diced)
Beef stock (I had chicken stock so I used it like that)
Knorr cubes (or any other one)
Pepper
Salt
Spaghetti

Procedure:

1. Heat oil in a saucepan. Saute the onions and garlic until soft and a little charred.

2. Add the ground beef and stir till continually to break it up and brown it.

3. Add
tomatoes, spices, seasonings and stock. For those who cook with wine, add your favorite red or white wine.

4. Add salt to taste and continue stirring so that it won't burn. Don't get carried away by the aroma...lol

5. Add carrots and water. Cover and allow to simmer until it becomes thick and the tomatoes don't taste sour anymore. It might not completely lose the sour taste but just make sure it is ok, not 'slapping'

6. When it is ready, remove from fire and keep aside.

7. Boil spaghetti in salted water. I prefer boiling it whole. it is easier to eat when the strands are not broken. If your pot is too small for that, put the spaghetti in boiling water and after some seconds gently push it in as the part in water softens.

8. When it is soft enough, drain the water and toss with some butter or olive oil.
