What's your fav spag bol sauce recipe?

[Thomcat]

I want to make a really rich spag bol sauce.
I know how to make it but just wondered if any of you girls had a special top tip that makes your sauce extra fab.

I'll be using red wine and pancetta in mine with the usual onions etc.

I put chicken livers in mine.

I used vermouth in my sauce last time instead of red wine and it was nicer than usual. not sure whether that was down to the vermouth or just longer cooking.

Ohhhhhhhh.

baby plum tomatoes, halved and gently fried in olive oil.

That sounds poncey, but it's gorgeous!

That sounds nice, and very different as well SueW, thanks.

Colditz, no it doesn't it sounds great

a glug of balsamic vinegar is always good for deepening flavour in something like this - use just before you add the wine to deglaze the pan, and dont breathe in. It'll add a touch of sweetness that will balance your salty pancetta nicely.

ADaDonMumsnet - great thinking, liking your style

I've started making one from Anthony Worral-Thompson's GI cook book. I don't include the chicken livers in his recipe as I don't like them but it's yummy anyway. Even DH who is not a Spag Bol fan likes it and DS loves it.

marmite...
