A spaghetti bolognese sauce recipe can be served not only with spaghetti but any kind of pasta that you like.
This is an extra special spaghetti bolognese recipe as Chef uses pastrami.
Pastrami is cured beef usually sold already sliced in supermarkets and delicatessens, pastrami can be used in replacement of bacon in certain recipes which is great for people who do not eat bacon.
Another great reason to cook this delicious spaghetti bolognese recipe is that it is not rich with tomatoes.
The taste of the pastrami in this recipe gives it a wonderful flavour.

Yum! I need to try this tonight!
now that sounds like a good combo indeed. I know I would be all over this one.
Oh, the pastrami must give it great flavor.
This is my type of comfort food. You just elevated all the flavors in there.
Josh loves pastrami so I think he would truly enjoy this dish!
Definitely a classic dish, although I've never actually had bolognese. I guess I should look into vegan versions (and yes, they do exist, and are supposedly tasty!)
That's a great idea to flavour the bolognese with pastrami.
Jeena, I finally made the muffins, not so great in look but fantastic in taste.
So easy and I bet it offers quite the complex taste experience. I'm already racking my brain thinking I've seen a Vegetarian Pastrami. Great recipe.
The dish looks very delicious...looks so good :)
oh, i LOVE a good meat sauce, and using pastrami instead of just typical ground beef is a really great idea! lovely, comforting dish, jeena. :)
