Method

Hide images
step 1
Briefly blitz the onion (1), celery (2 sticks), pepper (1) and carrots (2) in a food processor to finely chop (or finely chop by hand).
step 2
Heat a splash of olive oil in a large saucepan or casserole over a medium heat. Add the veg with a pinch of salt and sweat for 10-15 minutes, until soft. Add the M&S Remarksable Value garlic (4 cloves) and chilli flakes (1 tsp), if using, and cook for a further 3-4 minutes until everything is soft and fragrant.
step 3
Add the veggie mince (1 pack) and smoked tomato paste (1 tsp) and cook for a few minutes, breaking the mince up with a fork. Add the chopped tomatoes (1 tin) and the lentils (1 tin), along with their liquid.
step 4
Fill the empty tomato tin with water and add that to the pan. Season with salt and pepper, turn the heat down to a simmer, cover and cook for 20-25 minutes, until reduced (add more liquid if it looks too dry) Add the Marmite® (1 tsp) and simmer for a further 5 minutes before tasting to check the seasoning.
step 5
Meanwhile, cook the spaghetti (400 g) according to the pack instructions.
step 6
Stir the fresh basil (1 handful) through the sauce, then use tongs to toss the cooked spaghetti into the bolognese, adding a bit of pasta cooking water if it seems too dry. Serve with extra fresh basil on top.
