Spaghetti Bolognese

Mum gave this to me when we were in uni, couldn't even make the basic spaghetti! Haha. eg.me makes this like a pro now and he only likes it when the mince is half beef and half pork.

Do try and defrost your mince in the fridge overnight, because I find if you defrost mince in the microwave, no matter how careful you are it seems to really toughen the meat and it's awful.
