Pretty good recipe I dont think Ill make it again. Not that it wasnt good just I prefer pasta without potatoes (too many carbs) and wasnt saucy enough for my liking. I think I will stick with traditional bolognese sauce. Thank you for the recipe though and I would recommend this for anyone who wants to try something different.
Very interesting and very delicious. I made mine without the meat. Will definitely make again. Thank you for the recipe.
Yum! I put turmeric in anything I can but never thought of cilantro in spaghetti sauce. Very fresh tasting. My only substitution was to use soy crumbles instead of beef. Not only delicious but an anti-inflammatory bonanza! Thanks for the recipe.
Though I didn't follow the recipe exactly I never thought of putting turmeric in spaghetti sauce. I had some fresh turmeric root to use so I grated one in. I've never put potato in before either but it was a great thickener. I added fresh Rosemary and Basil. It was Awesome! Ty for sharing.
I LOVED IT!!!! My 7 yr old found the carrots and potatoes off-putting but after a few times I think she'll get used to it. It takes like regular spaghetti for the most part. I always cut pasta amounts in half. It was perfect that way.
***MY NOTE: This recipe reminds me of my Dear Maman similar Spaghetti Sauce that is prepared with similar spices to Mexican & Moroccan pasta sauce. My family cooked with turmeric practically in all their cooking as it is very healthy spice. This spaghetti sauce is tasty and I have made it for years. The only thing I changed is instead of dicing and cubing the onions, carrots and potato, for a better sauce consistence and short cut I placed them all with the cilantro and garlic in a food processor and pulse until finely chopped, and followed the rest of the steps of the recipe. ABSOLUTELY YUMMY & HEAILTHY SOMALI PASTA DISH! Thanks you Ma for sharing.
This one is a keeper with requests to have it in the regular rotation. I substituted fresh basil for the cilantro and Italian seasoned ground turkey so therefore omitted the Italian seasoning. I picked a nice red potato which worked nicely.
Great recipe. I didn't change a thing. My three kids loved it and they are always a tough sell. This will definitely be in our dinner rotation. Thanks!!
I don’t often leave reviews because I do that thing that drives others crazy: I adjust recipes according to what I have on hand and according to my husband’s dietary demands.
Having said that, I love this recipe. My husband loves Bolognese sauce, but we’ve had it so often that I’m sick of it. This is a great compromise, and it gets some veggies into his diet.
He is a diabetic, so I did not use potatoes. I don’t care for the taste of Mrs Dash products, so I also omitted that. However, I’m a Southern girl, so there’s always okra in my freezer. Okra having African origins, I thought it might make an excellent addition, so I added three pods, chopped.
The resulting sauce was delicious and so fragrant! Will certainly make this again.
