Pasta Bolognaise

I love pasta, i could eat it everyday...i truely love it..so i thought i would put up one of my favourite dinners that i make almost every week.  It is quick and easy, i make it in about 30 minutes.  If you have a lot of people over and don't know what to make that is easy and doesn't hurt your pocket...this is it. 


So here we go:


You need the following:


Bag of pasta
500g to a 1kg mince (it all depends on how meaty you want it)
1 x onion chopped
1 x can chopped tomato
1 x sachet tomato paste
oil




1. On your stove top heat some water a litre per pasta bag, pour some oil in the water (this helps that the pasta does not stick to each other) 

2.  When the water is boiling add the pasta and stir.

  
3.  After about 15 minutes the pasta should be ready, you will notice that the pasta has almost double in size, and the water is much much less. 
4.  Strain the pasta from all the water, some people run water over the pasta, but i don't think it's really needed. 



5.  And then into a bowl.



 Now it's time for the meat...you of course don't have to make it seperate, it's quicker to cook it together. 

1.  So first you chop up your onion and then fry it in a little bit of oil...cook it until it's golden brown.



2.  Then you can add the mince, cook it until its nice and brown, add your seasoning...of course my favourite is beef spice, soja sauce and aromat, and salt & pepper.  



 3.  After its brown add your can of chopped tomato & tomato paste and let it simmer.



4.  And then it's done, pour it over the pasta and then sprinkle some cheese over. 




Enjoy the taste and dinner.
