Bolognese Penne Bake - Syns 0.5 on EE
I adapted this recipe from one that I read in a cooking magazine I get through the post...
Ingredients serves 4
1 red onion chopped
2 sticks of celery chopped
1 carrot chopped
5 garlic cloves
Beef stock cube
500g extra lean mince
4 tbsp tomato puree
worcester sauce
1 tsp chilli flakes
750ml passata
1 tsp oregano
1 tsp basil
salt and pepper
500g penne pasta
HEXA worth of cheese per person - grated
Pre-heat the oven to 200C and in a large saucepan fry the onion, garlic, celery and carrot in the fry light.
Add the beef mince and fry until brown.
Drain the contents of the pan (even though it's extra lean, always a bit of fat)
Return the mince and veg to the pan, add the passata, herbs, tomato puree and worcester sauce. Cook for 30 minutes.
Cook the pasta while the bolognese is cooking.
Mix together after 30 minutes in a large ovenproof dish.
Cover the dish in enough HEXA's of cheese per serving and bake for 20 minutes.
I have an update for this!!!! It freezes really well....I just thawed it and then whacked it in the mircowave for about 4 minutes....couldn't believe how well it froze...always been a bit cynical about freezing pasta...

Just wanted to say thanks had a bit of a down weekend struggling as I am not a keen veggie lover so finding it topugh. I made the morrocan chicken, I used ras el hanout spice that I had in and cooked a pile of roasted peppers, courgettes, garlic, tomatoes, red onion to accompany. Kids adored it, hubby and I both on S/W and we feel happy again tonight as it was a good dinner.

This sounds delicious! Is the egg raw tho or do you cook it a bit while its on the pasta. Sorry if this is a silly question, never made carbonara before x
