Spaghetti Bolognese
Background
Bolognese sauce originates from Bologna, Italy.
Traditionally it uses minced beef, and is served
with tagliatelle. Many recipes also include red
wine, but this is not used in this version for
schools. Here veggie mince is used instead
of meat, and the sauce is great with any kind
of pasta.
