Royco® Creamy Tomato Pasta Sauce has a slight sweetness that will appeal to even the fussiest eaters. To add extra fibre, choose wholewheat rolls.

Cook’s tips:

Processed cheese slices will melt quickly on the hot bolognaise sauce, but if you’re using ordinary cheddar or gouda, you can put the rolls on a baking sheet and pop them under a hot grill until the cheese bubbles.

1.
Heat the oil in a pot and fry the onions over a medium heat until soft and golden (about 5 minutes).
2.
Add the grated carrots, baby marrows, garlic and tomato paste, and cook for 3 minutes, stirring now and then.
3.
Turn the heat up and add the mince, breaking up any clumps with a fork. Cook, stirring often, for about 5 minutes, or until there is no trace of pink in the meat.
4.
Pour in the contents of the sachet of Royco® Creamy Tomato Pasta Sauce and the hot water (or stock). Stir well, add the mixed herbs and season to taste with salt and pepper.
5.
Cook, uncovered, over a medium heat for 30 minutes, stirring now and then.
6.
Halve and butter your bread rolls and place them on warm plates. Spoon the hot bolognaise sauce over the rolls and top with slices of cheese.
7
Serve immediately with oven chips.
