Bolognese

Another meal I love to cook when camping and if I can I try and order a local Pizza place to deliver a Garlic bread or go and collect one. I just haven’t figured out how to cook garlic bread yet, that said it’s not essential. 

Ingredients for 4

If there are more of less of you, just alter the numbers to match.

Cooking Steps

  1. Get the largest pan on a medium heat and add the oil
  2. Add the chopped bacon and cook for around 10 minutes
  3. Reduce the heat and add the onion, carrots and celery sticks as well as the lazy garlic and cook until the veg softens.
  4. Turn the heat back up and add beef and cook, stir through (around 3-4 minutes) until its browned all over
  5. Add the Bolognese Sauce cook for a few minutes until its boiing
  6. In the meantime bring a large pan of water to boil
  7. Add the spaghetti and cook until done and then drain
  8. Server
  9. Add the cheese once served

This is bound to get your camping neighbour peeking their head over especially during cooking. It creates a wonderful smell. I usually cook this while the kids are playing.
