4 tablespoons of good olive oil 2 finely chopped onions 3 cloves of garlic finely chopped 1 handful of continental parsley roughly chopped 2 tablespoons of dried mixed italian herbs 800 grams of mince 800 grams can of chopped tomato 5 Roma tomato's chopped Salt and freshly ground pepper
Fry onions in oil for 3 minutes on medium heat or until soft Add garlic, parsley and dried herbs, fry for 2 minutes add salt and freshly ground pepper On high heat, add mince and cook until all liquid is gone. Turn heat down to low add tomato's, stir. Simmer for 3 hours stirring occasionally
Top with freshly grated parmesan and freshly ground pepper
Bonus points for home made pasta. Easy to do.
Add chopped mushrooms or chopped and pre-fried chorizo or both for a bit of variety. I like to fry the chirizo, remove and chop before cooking the onions, then adding back in with the mince, mushrooms go in with the tomato.
