FAST SPAGHETTI BOLOGNESE



Fast Spaghetti Bolognese image

The secret ingredient in this ultrafast Bolognese is Worcestershire sauce. The vinegar, molasses and anchovies in the condiment season the ground beef mixture with salt, acid, sweetness and funk in one shot. Once the Bolognese has simmered, use tongs to transfer the pasta directly from the pot to the skillet, then toss in some of the starchy pasta cooking liquid for a glossy, saucy finish.

½ tsp Black pepper or to taste
fresh Basil to serve

Steps:

  • saute chopped onions in oil over medium heat until soft and translucent. Then add the chopped garlic and saute for another 30 seconds to 1 minute.
