Lorenzo's Bolgnese

This is our classic bolgnese recipe, to go with rice or pasta. It could even be the filling for a quick lasagne.

1. 1

   Heat a small amount of cooking oil in a frying pan, and fry the onion and carrot for 5 minutes, until they soften and take on some colour.
   
   Add the garlic and fry for a further minute.
   
   Add the minced beef and stir fry until all traces of pink has gone (this takes longer with frozen mince).
   
   Add the tomato puree, basil, worcestershire sauce and BBQ sauce. Stir thoroughly. Dissolve the stock cube in the water, and incorporate into the beef a little at a time, until it is all thoroughly combined.
   
   Bring the mixture to the boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for up to 30 minutes, until most of the liquid has gone. Add the frozen sweetcorn after 10 minutes cooking time.
   
   Season with salt and pepper to taste, and serve.
