Family Favorite Spaghetti Bolognese

Heat a pot and add a large splash of olive oil. Peel and finely chop onions, adding to the pot. Stir occasionally until onions become translucent. If necessary, turn down the heat to prevent the onions from burning.

Add the minced beef and begin to brown. Do not break up the meat too much; leave some nice meatball-like chunks. Before the meat is completely browned and there are still some pinks bits left, add passata. Fill the passata container halfway with water and add to the pot. Add tomato puree.

Stir and leave everything to simmer for 5 minutes. Mince garlic and, if desired, chop mushrooms. Add sweetener, mushrooms, garlic, herbs, pepper and stock cubes (as well as salt, if needed) to the pot. Stir well and leave the tomato sauce to cook and reduce, about 30 minutes.

Ten minutes before the tomato sauce is ready, spiralize the courgettes and fry in a little olive oil for a few minutes, seasoning with a little salt and pepper. Remove the courgettes before they start to release any water, setting aside.

When everything is ready, then plate the courgette noodles and sauce, adding any toppings of your choice. Then finally, taste and delight in the awesome-ness of this delicious tomato sauce.
