Pasta bolognese
This is my version of the popular dish. I love fresh oregano but if you don’t have it basil, rosemary, thyme or mint will do the trick!

Notes & Tips:

If you like spicy food, keep the seeds in the chili pepper, it will bring the whole dish to a new level, if you don't like spicy, remove the seeds and only use half the pepper, it won’t be spicy but you will still get the flavor! Use your favorite pasta for this dish, just make sure to not overcook it. If you forget to save some of the pasta water don’t worry it will still be delicious!
