Werkwijze
  1. Start by chopping up all your veggies but keep them seperate.
  2. Put a large pot on your stove and heat some olive oil. Add the onion and garlic and let them simmer for about 2 minutes.
  3. Add the rest of the veggies except the tomatoes.
  4. Let this simmer for about 15 minutes until tender. If necessary you can add some stock or water.
  5. Pour this mixture in your blender and let this cool for at least 10 minutes before blending smoothly. If necessary add some water or stock.
  6. In the meanwhile add some extra olive oil to your pan and start baking the meat. Use a fork to separate the meat and let it bake evenly until brown.
  7. Add the blended veggie mix and mix this with a fork or wooden spoon. Add the chopped tomatoes and an extra can of water (just fill up the can of the tomatoes with filtered water).
  8. Add the bay leaf and extra spices. I prefer dried oregano, thyme and some fresh basil.
  9. Put the cover on and let this simmer on a very low heat for at least one hour.
  10. Enjoy!
