Easy And Hearty Summer Bolognese
This Easy And Hearty Summer Bolognese version is quite light, and it’s such a great idea to have some raw ingredients in there.
Ingredients
¾ pound ground beef (minced beef)
1 stalk spring onions
½ pound spaghetti - approx ¼ gram grams per person- 1 tablespoon garlic oil
- ¼ cup dry white wine
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 tablespoon red wine vinegar- 1 teaspoon caster sugar
- 1 teaspoon dried chilli flakes
½ teaspoon dried thyme
1 teaspoon paprika
1 pinch salt
1 pinch ground black pepper
½ punnet cherry tomatoes - halved (around 100 grams)
1 handful parsley
1 handful baby spinach
1 handful Parmesan cheese - shaved or grated, to serve
Instructions
- Heat the garlic oil in a frypan over high heat and add the mince, spring onion, paprika, thyme, and chilli flakes. Cook, breaking up the mince until browned (about 6 minutes).
- While the mince is cooking, set a large saucepan of salted water to boil for the pasta and add the pasta when ready. Cook according to packet instructions (about 10 minutes).
- Once the beef has been browned, stir through the salt, pepper, sugar, and tomato paste and cook for a few more minutes. Then add the white wine and cook for another few minutes until the wine has reduced a little.
- Drain the pasta once ready and toss it with lemon juice and red wine vinegar.
- Push the meat to one side of the frypan and add the pasta to one side, twirling the pasta with a pair of tongs as you lower it onto the frypan to make it stand up a little (Donna’s special trick!).
- Arrange the cherry tomato, parsley, and spinach leaves around the pan and top with parmesan and extra cracked pepper if desired.
