Tip

Anchovies add a delicious richness to this dish, there is no residual fish flavour and the health benefits are huge too. You can also add capers or dried porcini mushrooms to this dish.

Other veggies I use in my Bolognaise are zucchini, broccoli or cauliflower. 

For a vegetarian option - use 200 gm dried puy lentils at the stage before 30mins cook time or 1 can drained lentils 10min before ending cooking.

This is also delicious as leftovers spread onto a pizza base - check out my recipe for this on a Gluten Free base!

Thermomix Model

  • Appliance TM 5 image
    Recipe is created for
    TM 5
    If you are using a Thermomix® TM6 measuring cup with your Thermomix® TM5:
    For cooking (simmering) at temperatures of 95°C or above (200°F), the simmering basket should always be used instead of the TM6 measuring cup, as the TM6 measuring cup fits tightly in the lid. The simmering basket rests loosely on top, is steam-permeable, and also prevents food spatter from the mixing bowl.
    Please note that the TM5 mixing bowl has a larger capacity than the TM31 (capacity of 2.2 liters instead of 2.0 liters for TM 31). Recipes for the Thermomix TM5 may not be cooked with a Thermomix TM31 for safety reasons without adjusting the quantities. Risk of scalding by spraying of hot liquids: Do not exceed the maximum filling quantity and observe the filling level markings of the mixing bowl!

    So delicious! I halved the recipe as I was only cooking for two, but there was plenty for leftovers. It's a deliciously rich and yet not too heavy bolognese. Thanks for the recipe!
