Thermomix Bolognese Sauce

Thermomix Bolognese Sauce

Bolognese sauce, the Italian family favourite is easily made in the Thermomix! Make this deliciously rich mince beef sauce that hails all the from Bologna. Authentic Bolognese sauce is served with tagliatelle, not spaghetti and does not include tomatoes. I have added tomatoes since a lot of people love this but feel free to leave it out too for a taste of real Bolognese.
