Lol at ummm's first link
I've just written down that antonio carluccio recipe to add to my repertoire, as it comes so highly recommended.
Not quite sure what I'm having this evening. He's having frozen leftover curry which I didn't fancy, maybe sardines on toast for me...and a glass of red, the name of which escapes me, I just bought a half case of it so obviously need to try it.
You won't regret it Ethan.

I'm going to make lasagne out of some of the left overs.

I did the recipe x4...so have loads...
Chicken Korma when I get around to it.....with a green salad.
Do you do it exactly as the recipe Ummmm, or do you tweak it at all?
Doing a Peter Pedant here, I notice that Antonio Carluccio is eating spaghetti in Eccles/Ummmm's recipe and not Tagliatelle, the recipe insisting on the latter.
Ethan...I just add extra meat.
Since when has spag bol for tea been worthy of comment - 1965?????
I've just made a shed load of Eccles Ragu tonight, half for spag bol tomorrow and the rest for the freezer.
If carrust puts truffles in his, that's worthy of comment, surely, diddly.
Our family tradition is pizza on Mondays, as my daughter gets home at all hours, and I can have it ready in 20 minutes. I make the dough on Sunday and let it rise in the fridge!

I make a bucket load of tomato sauce on Sunday - rather like Carluccio's recipe, but without meat, and Tuesday is Spag Bol night, frying up more onions with skirt, cut into small cubes. yayyyyyyyy indeed!
I'm disappointed to read Diddlydoo's disdain for Spag Bol. A well made ragu is full of depth of flavour and a rich heart warming dish, served with good pasta and a grating or two of Parmesan it is wonderful.

It is a classic, why be so dismissive of such a heart warming dish?

If we are to be so sniffy towards 'old fashioned' dishes should we abandon our love for a sandwich too?
This is the spag bol recipe I've used for a number of years. Quite similar to Carluccios,but also has milk in the recipe,and more meat.

I never understand how people can think food is old fashioned, if you like it, you eat it....

Bring on the prawn cocktails and the Black Forest Gateaux ;)
I like idea of adding some nutmeg as per the AdC recipe, I might try that next time.

I have used milk in the past it does enrich the dish.

You can have all the BFG to yourself Rocky but you may have to share the prawn cocktail :-)
tasty strawberry slimfast shake for me..and...I'm not sharing !
I suspect many of us will appreciate you keeping that to yourself MM ;-)
I agree rocky- food should be flavoursome not fashionable.
I am currently cooking a Lamb stew with crispy rosemary dumplings- how very last century of me ;/
Murray - are you losing weight - if so can you share your loss.
