- Heat oil in a heavy based pot. Add the bacon, carrot, celery, onion and garlic and cook until wilted. Add the meat.
- Brown while stirring to break up the clumps. Mix in the stock and bring to a boil. Add the tomato paste, stir well and cover the pot.
- Cook over low heat about 30 minutes, remove the lid and cook for another 10 minutes until you have a thick, rich sauce.
- Sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste, and stir in the optional wine.
Tip
This recipe serves 4 but can stretch to 6. Keeps for five days or freeze. You can leave out the bacon if you wish. If you want mushrooms, add them in the last 10 minutes of cooking.
