This recipe has become a real staple in the British household. Kids love it. And if you make too much sauce you can freeze it and get it out on another occasion.

To get extra flavour into this recipe…..
Seasoning the meat with salt and pepper adds an extra kick of flavour.

Make this sauce your own by adding whatever fresh or dried herbs of your choice or even some red wine which can be added and cooked down before adding the tomatoes.

When adding the dried oregano, try rubbing it between your palms to release maximum flavour
