4. Hints & Tips

Hints & Tips

  • You can cook the mince in the pot rather than the oven, but I would recommend taking it out and draining off the fat before adding any other ingredients.
  • You can also cook this on the hob if you do not have an oven proof pot, it just means checking routinely and stirring to prevent the sauce from sticking to the base of the pot.
  • Please cook off the Tomato Puree & Wine (if using) as this changes the flavour.
  • If you do not want to use Wine (red or white) you can also use red wine stock pots, just follow the instructions and use 250ml.
  • You can make this in advance, if you are freezing it its best to portion it before freezing.

It can be used with pasta (macaroni, spaghetti etc.) as a base for lasagne, cannelloni or even with baked potatoes for a lunch.
