Notes
Tips
1. For an added layer of flavor, consider browning the meat with garlic-infused olive oil. 2. Use a fine mesh sieve to drain the tomatoes well, so the sauce doesn’t become too watery. 3. If you prefer a thicker sauce, let it simmer for an additional 5-10 minutes. 4. Always taste the sauce and adjust the seasonings as per your preference. Serving Suggestions
- Serve the Low-FODMAP Spaghetti Bolognese hot, right off the stove. - Garnish with a sprinkle of fresh parsley or a little Parmesan cheese (if tolerated). - Accompany the dish with a side of low-FODMAP garlic bread or a simple green salad.
