Busy weeknights with hangry family waiting for dinner in a hurry are pretty standard in our house so any recipe that I can whip up which pleases everyone and cuts down on the clean up is a winner for me.<\/p>\n<p>\nI&#8217;ve made various versions of this recipe for a while, changing the mince and herbs used, adding some chilli to spice things up, using whatever pasta shapes we have in the cupboard.  The cheese topping is always welcomed by my lot, and I usually serve this dish with steamed greens or mixed vegetables.<\/p>\n<p>\n<b><span style=\"font-size: large;\">One Pot Bolognese<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n<p>\n1 Tblsp oil<\/p>\n<p>\n2 peppers, deseeded and diced (any colour will do)<\/p>\n<p>\n1 large onion, peeled and diced<\/p>\n<p>\n2 cloves garlic, minced<\/p>\n<p>\n500g beef mince<\/p>\n<p>\n400g tin of chopped tomatoes<\/p>\n<p>\n4 Tblsp tomato paste<\/p>\n<p>\n750ml rich beef stock<\/p>\n<p>\n1 Tblsp dried mixed herbs<\/p>\n<p>\n500g dried wholemeal penne pasta<\/p>\n<p>\n150g grated mature cheddar cheese, or more if you want<\/p>\n<p>\nYou will need a large pot for this recipe, which has an accompanying lid.  Heat the oil in a large pot over a moderate heat.  Add the peppers and onion, cooking until they have softened.  Add the garlic and cook for a couple of minutes.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\nTip in the mince, breaking it up as it browns.  You want the beef to be thoroughly broken up and no longer pink.  Add the tinned tomatoes, tomato paste, beef stock, mixed herbs, and stir until completely combined.<\/p>\n<p>\nReduce the heat to medium\/low then stir through the pasta.  Cover and cook for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.  Check that the pasta is cooked to your liking, cover and cook a little longer if necessary.<\/p>\n<p>\nSprinkle the cheese on top and put the lid back on the pan, cook for a few minutes until the cheese melts.\u00a0 You could put the pot under a preheated grill if you want the cheese golden and bubbling.\u00a0 We serve ours with wilted greens and steamed mixed vegetables.<\/p>\n<div>\n<div class=\"separator\" style=\"clear: both; text-align: center;\">\n<a href=\"https:\/\/blogger.googleusercontent.com\/img\/b\/R29vZ2xl\/AVvXsEgo0TFqDK4aV2JNxezSmRECF7wQEIlzh4kwA2jIWa7T4CdW9-r8Ul3I76Jcv_n-1OUTK67_SRyOJhdpQdDI2B9jauSqkcRGYSOzASxd9NB0v-mFT_jcvgvytxEMvHB4w4RCdKBikueMTxPi\/s1600\/One+Pot+Pasta+Bake.jpg\" imageanchor=\"1\" style=\"margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" border=\"0\" data-original-height=\"1600\" data-original-width=\"1067\" height=\"640\" src=\"https:\/\/blogger.googleusercontent.com\/img\/b\/R29vZ2xl\/AVvXsEgo0TFqDK4aV2JNxezSmRECF7wQEIlzh4kwA2jIWa7T4CdW9-r8Ul3I76Jcv_n-1OUTK67_SRyOJhdpQdDI2B9jauSqkcRGYSOzASxd9NB0v-mFT_jcvgvytxEMvHB4w4RCdKBikueMTxPi\/s640\/One+Pot+Pasta+Bake.jpg\" width=\"426\"\/><\/a><\/div>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: &quot;calibri&quot; , &quot;sans-serif&quot;; font-size: 11.0pt;\"><br \/><\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>One pot recipes are my absolute favourite, minimal washing up, and they&#8217;re usually really low fuss.
