Spaghetti Bloggernese

Although we miss being in Canada very much, one of the great things of being back in the UK is being able to cook our favourite meals just the way we like them. Last week with Jenny and Steve we had Kashmiri Lamb, yesterday we had Spaghetti Bolognese, and today we had Chicken Curry, making three of my all time favourite dishes - YUM!!

Apparently Spag Bol was a favourite of mine even from days of being a baby in a high chair - I'd attack it like I hadn't eaten in weeks. I always looked forward to Saturdays when Rae (my sister) and I would go swimming and then come back to a healthy meal of Spag Bol. Probably one of the grossest things I have done is watch intestinal surgery while eating Spag Bol. When I'm feeling off colour, it's Spag Bol that I crave - many a time it has rescued me from feeling blue. Spag Bol is a food from heaven and I've just realised that it shares my initials (I don't have a middle name - my parents thought Stephen Belleguelle was long enough already) The funny thing is that my Dad loves it too - I obviously got his genes for that one - good one Dad :-)

One thing about SB is that it's MY dish, I make it and Heather is my assistant. This is the only dish where things are this way round and this is the way it has to be. I was passed the recipe by my Mum and although Heather has tried, she just doesn't do it as well as me. I don't think I'm too full of pride here, after all it is the only thing I cook better than H, but I do make a mean SB.

So how do I do it - well I take Mum's recipe, modify it a little, add a couple of other special ingredients and there you have it. If there's enough demand in the comments I may put the full recipe on a future posting, but for now you'll just have to make do with a picture. Enjoy!!

Yumm, nothing quite like it!
