  • 2 packs of Vegi Deli mince – 300g / or a pack of V-bites and a pack of no bull mince from Iceland.
  • 2000 g onions
  • 6 medium peppers – red are best.
  • 20 g yeast flakes – 4 heaped tablespoons is easier.
  • 20 g cocoa powder
  • 3 onion stock cubes
  • 3 low salt veg stock cubes
  • 5 cans tomatoes
  • 1 large jar Lloyd Grossman tomato & chilli sauce - or similar
  • 1 tube of tomato puree
  • 5 cans of kidney beans
  • 1 scotch bonnet
  • 6 chillies – or more
  • 2 whole bulbs of garlic
  • Soya sauce – 2 tablespoons
  • Whole jar of Sainsbury’s chipotle sauce.
  • 1 pack of Spag Boll spices – Old El Paso or Schwartz.
  • 1 jar of Sacla vegan red pesto
  • 1 flat tablespoon of Onion powder
  • 1 flat tablespoon of garlic powder?
  • 2 flat tablespoons of smoked chilli powder

Instructions
 

  • Finely chop the onions and being sautéing them.
  • Crush the garlic into the mix and stir well and keep sautéing.
  • When onions and garlic are nicely browning, add in the cans of tomatoes and other dry & wet ingredients (cans of tomatoes, red pest, tomato puree etc.
  • Simmer gently.
  • Meanwhile, chop the peppers into fairly small pieces ½ cm approx. size and sauté them in olive oil or in an Actifry. At the same time, add in the chillies – chopped quite finely.
  • Prepare the various mince types – most of them require a little sautéing in oil – I find the Actifry is best for doing the peppers and the various mince types.
  • Lastly add all the ingredients including the beans and peppers to the main pan.
  • Add in enough extra water to get a reasonably sloppy mixture – not too wet, but deffo not too dry.
  • Put in oven for 45 minutes on around 150° C – stirring occasionally.
  • Portion into 275g batches – this is enough for 2 portions of spaghetti Bolognese.
  • This amount made 56 individual portions approx. It will keep you going for ages! But you do the work once, then you can just use it as you need it.
