Only eat as much food as your body needs. Relish it, appreciate it, love it and bless it for the life it gives you.

Spaghetti Bolognese
The all-time favourite dish and the most searched for recipe on this site. This is not a true bolognese sauce, but a variation that is used anywhere north of Italy. I tend to prepare huge amounts and freeze what I don't eat. I've carefully measured the ingredients and played around with different amounts and found the recipe below to be the best - but please feel free to modify! This will give you a not too salty bolognese with a very slight sharpness to it - my kids eat it as well. If you like your food hot, add more of the chili paste. Also, some people like more garlic in their sauce, so feel free to add more.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Ingredients
4 1/2 cups chopped tomatoes
11 3/4 ozs beef mince (ground beef)
2 onions onion (medium size, 160g each)
4 tablespoons tomato concentrate (looks like a cross between tomato paste & tomato sauce)
2 1/2 teaspoons honey
2 3/4 cloves fresh garlic (medium size, 3g each)
3/4 teaspoons salt
3/4 teaspoons hot chili paste
3/4 teaspoons paprika
2 teaspoons dried oregano
3/4 teaspoons ground black pepper
2 3/4 fl. ozs olive oil
2 3/4 fl. ozs red wine
2 splashes worcester sauce
~~~~~~~~~~
Peel and chop the onions. Pour the olive oil into a sizeable saucepan, heat it and fry the onions until translucent. Add the mince and fry until the mince is brown and crumbly. Now add the wine, worcester sauce, spices, tomatoes, squeezed garlic, chili paste, honey and tomato concentrate. Simmer for at least 45 minutes, or, if you have the time, for 2 hours.
Thanks, Plasmate.

Because Pasta is one of those slow releasing forms of carbs, lots of pro sports people choose this sort of dish as their pre-match meal.
