Healthier Simple Spaghetti Bolognese step by step

1. Heat a medium saucepan over a medium to high heat. Add the oil and once warm add the onions. Cook whilst stirring for 5-6 minutes until the onions soften and become translucent..
2. Add the beef mince and cook until nicely browned. Add the crushed garlic and tomato pureé. Combine together..
3. Boil some water in a large saucepan, I usually boil the water in a kettle to speed up this process, then simply add it to the saucepan already over a high heat. Add a good pinch of salt and add the spaghetti. Begin to cook according to packet instructions..
4. Next add the passata and dried herbs to the onions. Season with salt and pepper. Add in the almond milk. Place on the lid and turn the heat down lower so that the sauce is simmering. Simmer gently stirring occasionally, whilst the spaghetti cooks..
5. Once the spaghetti has cooked, add 1-2 tbsp of the starchy cooking water to the to meat sauce, (judge how thick the meat sauce is at this point to guage whether to add one or two spoons, the sauce should have a nice thick, but not stodgy consistency). This gives it a silkier texture. Drain off the pasta in a collender..
6. Take the large now empty saucepan you cooked the spaghetti in and pour the meat sauce into it, off the heat. Next, add the well drained spaghetti (it's important to not add any extra water at this point), and add an extra crack of black pepper and a pinch of salt. Gently toss the meat sauce and spaghetti together until every strand is well coated..
7. Serve up, grate over parmasan cheese and garnish with a few fresh basil leaves..
