A creamy meat sauce, packed with vegetables, full of flavour and finished with a generous splash of cream.
This bolognese tastes wonderful – a rich, creamy take on the classic, full of finely diced vegetables and with the deep flavour that only comes from a long, slow simmer.
Let the bolognese simmer for 2 hours or more if you can; the flavour really develops over time. I would say 1 hour at the very least to draw enough flavour out of the meat, vegetables and tomatoes, and add a little beef stock if needed.
I used tinned cherry tomatoes in this batch, snipping them roughly with scissors straight in the pan, simply to give it a lovely rustic look. You can of course use ordinary chopped tomatoes instead, or whatever you prefer.
