  1. SAUCY BOLOGNESE

    Place a pot over medium heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, add the diced onion and diced carrot and fry for 6-7 minutes until soft, shifting occasionally. Add the grated garlic, the tomato paste, and the red wine. Fry for 1 minute until fragrant, shifting constantly. Add the beef mince and work quickly to break it up as it starts to cook. Caramelise for 3-4 minutes until browned, shifting occasionally.

  2. SIMMER THE SAUCE

    When the mince has caramelised, add the tomato passata, the rub, and 300ml of water to the pot. Simmer for 10-12 minutes until slightly reduced. Add ½ the chopped oregano and season with a sweetener of choice, salt, and pepper.

  3. YUMMY PILLOWS

    When the bolognese has 5 minutes remaining, boil the kettle. Place a pot for the gnocchi over high heat. Fill with boiling water, add a pinch of salt, and bring back up to the boil. Once boiling, cook the gnocchi for 2-3 minutes until they begin to float and are heated through. Drain and toss through some oil to prevent sticking.

  4. PLATE UP!

    Plate up the gnocchi and spoon over the saucy bolognese. Sprinkle over the grated Italian-style cheese and garnish with the remaining oregano. Looks good, Chef!
