    This is a very tasty and healthy bolognese. I don't add oil, I dry fry the mince first and drain off any excess fat. I also add an oxo cube whilst browning the mince and a good slug of Worcestershire sauce. I add tomato puree and don't use ready made sauce - it doesnt need it. Simmer until lush! - 4/21/10
