Bolognaise Sauce

For so many years, I have always wanted to make a bolognaise sauce from scratch instead of using the jar sauce. I'm glad I did, because while it doesn't look like there much stuff in it, it is very tasty.

- 1 tablespoon oil
- 1/2 kg mince      
- 1/2 onion
- 2 teaspoons garlic
- 200g tomato paste
- 1 small tin diced tomatoes
- 2 bay leaves
- 1/2 cup red wine
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1 tablespoon italian herbs

1. Heat oil in a large frypan and cook the mince until brown. Add the onion and garlic and cook for 3 minutes.

2. Add the tomato paste and mix for 2 minutes. Pour in the wine and simmer for 2 minutes, continually stirring.

3. Add the rest of the ingredients.

4. Cover with a lid and simmer for 20 minutes. Add a little water if it needs thinning.
