  1. I actually own the cookbook this came from but have never made it before. We enjoyed it a lot thanks Jarrah. It was quick and easy to get on and cooking. I omitted the flour (I don't like flour thickened sauces) and just reduced it until I was happy with the consistency. I would have liked some basil and oregano in it along with the thyme and couldn't resist throwing in some chopped parsley at the end.
     
  2. This was so good, i have NEVER made my own sauce, always used a jar for bolognese. Will NEVER be buying the "jar stuff" again! Thanks for this great recipe. Definately thumbs up! :)
