I cooked this for dinner tonight - I was a bit sceptical at first....no oregano!!!! But with full knowledge that Neil has forgotten more than I could ever know I gave it a whirl. Well folks it was awesome! Best spag bol I have ever cooked ( or eaten). I added a few chilli flakes to rev it up as I am a bit of a chilli fiend. Perfectly simple and simply perfect! Thanks Neil
