Quick Lamb Bolognese

Steps

1. Cook pumpkin Preheat oven to 230°C. Bring a large pot of hot salted tap water to the boil with a lid on. Toss pumpkin on a lined oven tray with a drizzle of oil. Season and roast for about 15 minutes, until tender.
2. Cook spaghetti and prep veggies Cook spaghetti in pot of boiling water for 8-10 minutes, until just tender. Stir occasionally. Drain and return to pot with a drizzle of oil to prevent sticking. Cover to keep warm. Finely dice onion, grate carrot and roughly chop spinach.
3. Cook lamb Heat a drizzle of oil in a fry-pan on high heat. Cook lamb for 3-4 minutes, stirring, until browned. Add onion, carrot and Bolognese spices and cook for about 3 minutes, until veggies are soft.
4. Cook sauce Stir tomato paste, tomatoes, water, balsamic vinegar and ½ tsp salt through lamb. Reduce heat to medium-high and simmer for 3-5 minutes, until sauce is reduced and thickened slightly. Stir occasionally
5. To finish Gently fold spinach through sauce, along with roasted pumpkin. Continue to simmer for a further 1 minute, until spinach has wilted. Season to taste
6. Serve spaghetti Bolognese topped with cheese.
