Instructions
Step 1
Finely dice onion, garlic, carrot, mushroom and bacon. Add the oil to a very large frypan on medium heat. Once it’s to temperature, sauté the onion and bacon together until the onion is slightly tender, then add the carrot, mushroom and garlic. Cook for 5 mins until the carrot is cooked, but not falling apart.
Frying Pan
Step 2
Clear an area of the frypan and add the mince, stirring for about 3 mins until it browns. Stir the meat and vegetable mixture together, then clear a small area again in the pan.
Step 3
Thinly slice the sundried tomatoes, parsley, oregano and anchovies and add all onto the cleared area of the pan. Stir these ingredients for 1 min before adding the tomato paste to cook off for a further 1 minute. Stir the tomato paste mixture through the beef and vegetable mixture.
Step 4
Add the tinned tomatoes, stock paste and 1/3 cup water to the pan and cover, turning the heat to low. Simmer on the cooktop for 45mins, stirring occasionally.
Step 5
Stir through the sugar and balsamic and remove the pan from the heat. Serve with pulse pasta and a sprinkling of Parmesan cheese
