Stir-fry bolognaise pasta – 1st attempt

we got bored of the usual cook-the-noodle-and-sauce-separately. and after tried stir-fried spaghetti several times for breakfast, we decided to tried it ourselves.

as usual, the ingredients :-

 IMG_6168 Decided to use Fettuccine instead of Spaghetti

 

IMG_6172 lazy people ingredient #1 – ready made beef balls

 

IMG_6167  lazy people ingredient #2 – canned Prego sauce and mixed herbs

 

and also our unsung hero ie, garlic and other seasonings. haha!

IMG_6174  1st things 1st, fry the balls (balls??? hahaha!) till they are 80% cook.

 

IMG_6177 next, cook the pasta till al-dente.

 

IMG_6179 mix in the sauce, balls and oter seasonings and sir-fry it for a while.

 

IMG_6181 Voila!!! the end result. the presentation was crappy though. haha!

 

how does it differ from the ones we always cook? taste is ok, but not without the following flaws :-

1. it was a tad too dry although you may think otherwise based on the photo above

2. the beef balls lack taste other than the beefy taste as there aren’t any seasoning or marinade in it. next time we will use ground meat instead.

3. we did not get the taste that we wanted

 

and the final verdict? i would give it 5 out of 10. just passed.

time to spy the cooks on the spaghetti stall again!
