Easy Homemade Spaghetti Bolognese with Smuggled Vegetables, Parmesan & Basil

If using a food processor, peel and roughly chop brown onion, garlic, and carrot. Roughly chop celery. Pick basil leaves, discard stems. Put a large pot of salted water on to boil for cooking spaghetti in step 4.

Add chopped onion, garlic, carrot, spinach, celery and ¹⁄₂ the basil to food processor and blitz until finely chopped.

Heat olive oil (enough to cover base) in a deep sided pan over medium heat. Add vegetables and a pinch of salt, and cook for 2-3 minutes, until they start to soften. Add mince, breaking it up with a wooden spoon, and cook until browned.

While Bolognese cooks, add spaghetti to the pot of boiling water and cook 7-9 minutes or until al dente.

Add tomato paste and red wine and passata. Simmer Bolognese for 12-15 minutes, stirring occasionally until mince is cooked and sauce has thickened slightly. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

Add drained spaghetti to the pan of Bolognese sauce, coating the pasta in the sauce. Divide between bowls and garnish with parmesan and any remaining basil leaves. Enjoy!
