Bolognese Ragout

Description

Serves 2

A staple in German cuisine, much as it has become in the UK, this Bolognese sauce is perfect with pasta and a chunk of garlic bread.

Ready Made German Meals

Bolognese is as famous in Germany as it is here, and this recipe puts more emphasis on meat than most ready made Bolognese sauces in the UK. Inspired by Italian ‎ragù, specifically the sauce made in the Italian city of Bologna, German Bolognese is less tomato orientated than a typical British version and is packed with ground pork and beef.

Great with Garlic Bread

This thick and meaty German Bolognese goes great with spaghetti (which is how we do it in Germany too), but also works well with various other types of pasta. Because ragù is also the base for many pasta al forno (pasta bake) dishes, you can also use our German Bolognese as a base for cooking lasagne. We also enjoy ours with a side of garlic bread!

Just Heat

This German Bolognese arrives from The Sausage Man frozen, but it’s precooked and ready to reheat. It takes just a few minutes on the hob after defrosting, and can even be heated in the microwave too. Then you can stir in your cooked pasta and enjoy. You can also pour your German Bolognese sauce over uncooked or part cooked penne pasta, cover with cheese, and bake in the oven for that great al forno dish.

From a German Butcher’s Kitchen

Our German Bolognese is cooked in the kitchens of one of our award winning German butchers. Using pork and beef sourced in Germany for a truly authentic German Bolognese sauce. You can also serve this sauce with tagliatelle, as they might in Italy, or with Spätzle (German egg noodles) as we do in Germany.
