Method
- Place the oil in a large frying pan over a medium heat. Add the vegetables and apple and fry for 10 minutes until soft. Stir in the garlic and fry for 10 seconds.
- Transfer to a blender, add the chopped tomatoes and whizz until smooth. Set aside.
- Add the mince to the frying pan and place over a medium-high heat. Fry for 4 minutes, breaking the mince up with a wooden spoon, until browned (you may need to do this in batches).
- Place the tomato and vegetable sauce in the pan with the mince, then add the tomato purée, ketchup, stock and oregano. Bring to a simmer and cook for 40–45 minutes, until the sauce is thick. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
