Step 1
Heat a splash of olive oil in a pan over medium-high heat.
Step 2
Add the chopped bacon to the pan and fry for about 10 minutes until golden and crispy. Then, reduce the heat slightly.
Step 3
Add the chopped onion, diced carrot, diced celery, garlic, and rosemary. Cook gently for about 10 minutes until the vegetables soften.
Step 4
Increase the heat to medium-high. Add the minced beef and cook, stirring constantly, until fully browned to add extra flavor.

Ingredients List
Important Notes
Plum tomatoes are ideal, but canned chopped tomatoes can be used as a direct substitute.
Chilli can be omitted if you prefer a completely mild Bolognese.
If your sauce is still watery after 1 hour 15 minutes, simmer it vigorously uncovered for an additional 15 minutes to reduce and thicken.
