Meat Bolegnese


I don't know about you, but I think pork is the best meat to make pasta sauce!
Beef can get a little too beefy and chicken's just bland..
This is my take on bolognese, and it's super easy, and you can tell others that you've made it from scratch xP

It's quite rich and heavy, but I believe that's how bolognese should be!
My brother's secret, tossing the pasta with sesame oil and dried basil, may sound strange but it really rocks!
so try it!

recipe:
1 small red onion, diced finely
400g minced pork
a 411g can of diced tomatoes
3/4 cups of canned tomato puree
1/2 cup red wine or burgundy

400g pasta
2 tablespoons of sesame oil
1 tablespoon of dried Basil

Heat a pot and add in 1 tablespoon of olive oil
Add in the onion and cook until its slightly browned
Add in the mince and fry it till its almost cooked and separated
Add in the canned tomatoes, puree and wine
Cover and simmer for about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally

.Boil the pasta until its al dante
Drain it and toss with sesame oil and dried basil.
