super spaghetti sauce

Ingredients

1         medium onion, chopped

2         cloves garlic

2 tsp    oil

500 g   minced beef

1         large carrot, grated

400g    diced tomatoes

½ cup tomato paste

1 pkt   tomato soup mix

1 cup   hot water

2 tsp    instant beef stock

1 tbsp  brown sugar

½ tsp   dried oregano

½ tsp   sea salt

½ tsp   smoked paprika or 1 tsp plain paprika

• the recipe calls for browning of the onion, garlic but i don’t bother
• i just mix everything together, a potato masher mixes it up the best & cook on low in slow cooker for 6-8 hours

Notes

i often double this recipe & then make nachos, shepherd’s pie etc with it
