Spaghetti Bolognese With Red Wine
This is an adaptation of a recipe by ainsley harriott. My husband usually doesn't like pasta but he finishes this before me and asks for more! It is slightly decadent in that it uses a bottle of red wine but is very good!
Steps
Place the minced meat , red wine , mixed herbs and salt and pepper in a bowl.
Stir well.
Cover and refrigerate overnight or all day.
Heat oil in pan.
Stir fry onion and garlic until soft.
Add red wine mixture , tomato paste , canned tomatoes , sweet chili sauce and chili flakes.
Bring to the boil then simmer uncovered for 45 minutes or until most of the liquid has evaporated and the mixture resembles traditional bolognese consistency.
Cook the spaghetti as mentioned on the packet.
At the last minute , stir the chopped parsley through the sauce.
Add sauce to the drained spaghetti and top with grated parmesan cheese.
Serve with a nice glass of red.
