Slow Cooker Bolognese Sauce

Ingredients :

1 kilo of beef mince
1 large onion (chopped)
10 mushrooms (chopped)
3 cloves of garlic (crushed)
I carrot (grated)
Handful of red lentil
Tin of chopped tomatoes
Large squeeze of tomato purée
Beef stock cube (crumbled)
Tablespoon of mixed herbs

Direction:

Brown the mince with the onions, garlic & mushrooms. Add to slow cooker. Add everything else & stir. Put a splash of water if it looks too dry. Cook on low for 8 hours.

We had 2 portions this evening with pasta & I froze the rest in 2 portion lots. I can add kidney beans & chilli powder to make beef chilli to serve with rice or make some mashed potato to turn it into cottage pie or mince and tatties. Works out at less than £1 a portion.
