The ingredient amounts are very much to taste. I personally use more of everything and will often add a variety of vegetables to the sauce. I had a bag of baby spinach leaves in the fridge when I last made this recipe so I threw in a couple of handfuls. Have fun with it.

Recipe type: Main
Cuisine: Italian
Serves: 4 to 6
Ingredients
  • 1 medium brown onion
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley chopped
  • 2 tablespoons fresh oregano chopped
  • 1 tablespoon curry powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 500 grams ground beef minced
  • 1 can diced tomatoes
  • 1 can tomato soup
  • 3 tablespoons tomato paste
  • 500 grams spaghetti pasta
  • 1 cup of parmesan cheese
Instructions
  1. Add the olive oil to a large pan on medium heat. Then add the onions and garlic until they soften, usually 3 to 5 minutes. Add the ground beef and mix for 5 to 7 minutes.
  2. Start adding the tomato soup, tomato paste, the herbs, spices and salt / pepper to taste. If you're adding vegetables, add them too. I added baby spinach leaves just because I had them in the fridge. After bringing the sauce to boil, reduce the heat and simmer for around 40 minutes. I start eating in less than 40 minutes if I'm hungry and if I can wait a little longer I will simmer it for more than 40 minutes.
  3. Ten minutes before the spaghetti sauce is ready, place the pasta in a large salted pot of boiling water and cook until soft.
  4. Serve with finely grated fresh parmesan cheese or I also like to use an aged cheddar cheese.
