2 x 400g tin chopped tomatoes 

400ml beef stock - grab knorr stock cubes in the supermarket.

2) Fry 400g beef mince until browned (around 5 minutes on medium heat), and drain, put to one side. 

3) In the same pan, fry the onions, garlic and carrots for 5 minutes. Add Oregano, basil, salt, chilli flakes and pepper, stir. 

4) Add cooked mince to the pan, stir well. Add tomatoes and beef stock, stir and bring to the boil. Gently simmer for 40-45 minutes, stirring every 10 minutes. 

5) 10 minutes prior to serving, cook your spaghetti so they can be served together.
