Spaghetti Bolognese with Bacon

Disclaimer : The following post is non-halal.

I had all the ingredients needed to whip up a spaghetti bolognese for lunch today, so here goes. Firstly, you'll need one of em' instant bolognese sauce which is readily available in any super or hypermarket. The one I had was Dolmio's Bolognese Sauce with Spicy Peppers. Other stuff includes the spaghetti itself (feel free to substitute this with any other kind of pasta k), minced pork, bacon (I'd recommend streaky bacon), 2 big onions (yellow or red ones are fine), salt, pepper and sesame oil.

It's a good idea to marinate the minced pork beforehand with a li'll bit of soy sauce, pepper and sesame oil.

Heat up the pan or wok and then add in a li'll bit of oil. In the mean time, you can also start heating up another pot of water to cook the pasta. Add in some salt to the boiling pot to infuse a tinge of taste into the pasta. This does make a difference, trust me.

When the pan or wok is heated, start frying the chopped pieces bacon till they're brown and crispy. When that's done, dish up the bacon and place in onto a tissue laden plate. Next up, with the remaining oil in the pan, begin stir frying the finely chopped onions. Add salt to taste. You can later throw in the minced pork and continue frying till the meat is cooked.

After that, empty the entire bottle of bolognese sauce into the pan and let it simmer for at least 10 minutes. Ground black or white pepper can be sprinkled to taste here.

Once the pasta is cooked, drain away the water and serve the pasta onto a plate. Scoop a generous amount of the sauce and this goes on top of the pasta. Add in the bacon and loads of parmesan cheese.

Now ... dig in and bon apetite. :)
