LoveTheBobby 1 Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 I've got a few to try. A byrianni and a couple of pickle mixes. Got an Indian mate who's mam makes me the odd batch of carrot pickle that is just amazing. The best Indian pickles Ive ever come accross are Waitroses'ones btw. They do a carrot one and an aubergine one that set any curry off just nice . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gemmill 44265 Posted July 26, 2012 Author Share Posted July 26, 2012 No celery and carrots in that bolognese? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christmas Tree 4679 Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 (edited) No celery and carrots in that bolognese? Nope. I thought it might be a bit flat. Bought some mushrooms to chuck in. Basically its on a website where they reckon over 5000 people have rated it 5 out of 5. Luckily they will be full up on the starter of potato wedges and fresh soured cream. If all else fails our lass has been paid today so the quayside Tapas place could be getting a visit. http://step-by-step-cook.co.uk/mains/bolognese/ Edit: Just noticed this.... 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. Edited July 26, 2012 by Christmas Tree Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LoveTheBobby 1 Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 Half beef, half pork mince for me . I think some recipies for it become a bit too elaborate and when 'diluted' with the pasta all the add-ons become lost ? Not sure what goes into a traditional rustic just'a'like'a'the'mamma'used'to'make bolognaise but a lot of modern variants seem Americanised and burgeoning .

We also chuckled in a tub of mushrooms. Just finished and have to say this is without doubt the best Bolognese sauce I have ever tasted. Miles better than anything I have tasted in a restaurant. Has a lovely little kick to it as well. It is no wonder over 5000 people gave this a score of 5 out of 5. Highly recommended.

Meenzer 15371 Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 bit like adding butter to a sauce. Some people will cook the meat in milk before adding the tomatos/wine etc so it gets a bit of protection from all the acidic's Yeah, I was just going to say, if there's milk involved then I assume it's at the stage where you're browning the meat. Hard to say when there's just ingredients and no method though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brock Manson 0 Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 Did an amazing corn beef hash last night. 2 potatoes 3 slices of corned beef 1 onion Good handful of kurly kale Onion salt (a recent discovery) Smoked paprika 1 tsp hot sauce Standard affair - boil potatoes for 8 mins, chop them up into small pieces then fry with the onion, salt, paprika, hot sauce and corned beef. Served on top of a bed of steamed kale then all finished with a fried egg on top. Plenty of ketchup on the side too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
