2 small carrots, peeled and diced

1 small aubergine, diced1 small courgette, diced

2 cloves garlic, minced

Method

 

1. Heat the oil in a large casserole dish set over moderate heat until hot. Add the beef mince and a generous pinch of salt; cook until no longer pink, breaking up with a wooden spoon, 4-5 minutes.

2. Stir in the onion, celery, carrot, aubergine, courgette,and some salt and pepper to taste. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables soften, about 5 minutes.

3. Stir in the dried herbs, tomatoes, and beef stock. Bring to a simmer; cook until the tomatoes soften and break down, stirring occasionally, about 10 minutes.

4. Meanwhile, bring a large pot of water to a bill. Once boiling, stir in a small handful of salt; add the spaghetti to the pot and cook until 'al dente,' about 10 minutes.

5. When ready, drain the spaghetti and add it to the pot with the beef ragú; toss to combine. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

6. Divide between bowls and serve with Parmesan on the side.
