Spaghetti Bolognese
Nigerian spaghetti bolognese is a flavorful and budget-friendly dish that adapts the classic Italian recipe with local spices like curry powder and seasoning cubes. It features spaghetti cooked with a rich sauce of minced meat, tomatoes, and a blend of fresh and dried vegetables like onions, garlic, and bell peppers. The sauce is often simmered with seasonings until the oil separates, and some versions may add a touch of sweetness or a hint of heat from Scotch bonnet peppers.
