Ingredients :


250g/ 8oz spaghetti

1 onion

100g/ 4oz mushrooms

1 green pepper (optional)

15g/ 1/2 oz margarine

250g/ 1/2 lb minced beef

Method :

Peel and chop the onions and pepper. Wash and slice the mushrooms. Melt the margarine in a large pan. Fry the onions, pepper, and mushrooms for 5 minutes. Add the mince and fry, stirring gently, until it is brown. Stir in the flour, and the tomatoes and stock cube. Add the water if it seems necessary, then add salt and pepper. Bring to the boil, then simmer very gently with the lid on, stirring occasionally, for 30 minutes.

Cook the spaghetti: put a large pan of water on to boil. Add salt. Add the spaghetti and when the water comes back to the boil, cook for 10-15 minutes. Drain in a colander and put on a hot dish. Pour the sauce on top of the spaghetti and serve.
