Fish Bolognese

Spaghetti Bolognese is a real classic pasta dish and I am a huge fan of spaghetti bolognese too, the idea of making "Fish Bolognese" was given to me by my brother living in Belgium, so I decided to give it a go, and it turned out quite delicious, I didn’t follow any particular recipe, just followed the same bolognaise sauce I  normally make....

 Ingredients:

 200 gm pasta

250 gm fish fillets cut in to one inch chunks (you can use canned tuna as well)

1 (28 ounce) can crushed tomatoes with juice

2 tbsp tomato ketchup

1 cup water or chicken broth

¼ teaspoons oregano

1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes

½ tsp crushed black pepper

3 tbsp olive oil

2 garlic cloves, chopped

1 medium capsicum chopped

1 cup sliced mushrooms

1 teaspoon sea salt

Grated cheddar or parmesan cheese (optional)

Method:

Heat oil in a pan and add in the onions and garlic, fry till onions get translucent, add in the mushrooms and capsicum and fry for a couple of minutes. Add tomatoes, ketchup, oregano, salt, pepper, and red chili flakes  and simmer over low hear for about 20 minutes; add the fish chunks to the sauce (or just drain and add the tuna if using tuna can). Bring back to a simmer and continue simmering until the fish is just done, break the fish into small pieces with a spoon. Mean while cook the pasta according to packet instruction. Add the drained pasta and toss with the sauce, serve it hot (topped with grated cheese if you like).
