preparation
1. Prepare the veggie mince: Put the Lotao veggie mince in a bowl, pour over 125 ml of hot vegetable stock and leave to swell for 2 minutes. Then drain in a sieve.
2. Cut the vegetables: Cut the fresh tomatoes into eighths, and cut the carrot and celery into cubes of about 5 mm.
3. Frying: Heat the rapeseed oil in a large pan or pot and briefly fry the veggie mince in it. Add the carrot and celery cubes and fry for about 5 minutes.
4. Add tomatoes: Stir in the diced fresh tomatoes and fry until the tomatoes fall apart slightly.
5. Deglaze with red wine: Deglaze the pan with red wine and bring to the boil briefly so that the alcohol evaporates.
6. Simmer the sauce: Add the canned tomatoes and rosemary sprigs and simmer covered on a low heat for about 2 hours to allow the flavors to fully develop.
7. Cook spaghetti: Towards the end of the cooking time, bring a large pot of water to the boil, add salt and cook the spaghetti al dente according to the instructions on the packet.
8. Season and serve: Season the Bolognese with salt and pepper. Drain the spaghetti, arrange on plates and pour the Bolognese over it.
