Ingredients

Bolognese

  • 1 brown onion, finely diced
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1 carrot, grated
  • 1 pack beef mince
  • 1 pack Bolognese spices
  • 1 can chopped tomatoes
  • 1 cup hot water
  • 1 tsp GF balsamic vinegar
  • 1 tsp GF soy sauce

Spaghetti

  • 1 pack supergrain spaghetti
  • 1 pack courgette zoodles

To Serve

  • 1 pack olives, thinly sliced
  • 1 pack baby mozzarella balls, cut in half

Steps

  1. Bring a large pot of hot salted tap water to the boil with a lid. Prep Bolognese veggies.
  2. Cook spaghetti. Add spaghetti to pot of boiling water and cook for 6 minutes. Add courgette zoodles and cook for a further 1-2 minutes, until both are just tender. Drain well, return to pot and toss with a knob of butter and a drizzle of olive oil. Season to taste. Cover to keep warm.
  3. Cook Bolognese. While pasta is cooking, heat a drizzle of oil in a large fry-pan on medium-high heat. Add onion, garlic and carrot and cook for about 4 minutes, until veggies are soft. Increase heat to high and add beef and 1/2 tsp salt. Cook beef, stirring, for about 5 minutes, until browned. Add Bolognese spices and cook, stirring, for about 30 seconds, until fragrant.
  4. Add canned tomatoes, hot water measure, balsamic vinegar and soy sauce. Bring to the boil, then reduce heat to medium-high and simmer for 6-8 minutes, until thickened and reduced. Season to taste. Prep olives and mozzarella.
  5. Serve spaghetti topped with Bolognese, olives and mozarella balls.
