I don’t really fancy the taste of tomato sauce or bolognese sauce out of the jar so instead I always make lots of bolognese sauce, freeze it then use it whenever I feel like it. It’s good for spaghetti, lasagna or pizza sauce.
Recipe:
1 large onion chopped
5 cloves of garlic chopped
1 large red chili chopped (to add a bit of a spicy taste to my Indonesian taste bud)
500 gr minced meat
1000 gr chopped tomato (fresh or from a can)
1 small can of tomato puree
handful fresh basil leaves
1 tbs salt
1 tbs pepper
1 tbs dried oregano or Italian mixed spices
How to make:
1. Fry garlic until fragrant.
2. Add chopped onion and chili, fry until the onion is tender.
3. Add minced meat, fry until meat turns color.
4. Add chopped tomato and tomato puree.
5. Add the rest of the spices.
6. Let it simmer for approx 30 mins.
Can be freezed in the freezer for up to 3 months.
