Instructions

1. Cook spaghetti according to packet instructions.
2. Heat oil in a frying pan over a medium heat. Add the onion and saute for a minute or two until translucent. Add the turkey and cook for 4-5 minutes until browned, breaking up any lumps with a wooden spoon.
3. Add the garlic, carrot and zucchini and stir through for a few minutes. Add paprika, dried Italian herbs, tomato passata and water. Season with salt and pepper. Bring to the boil then reduce to a simmer for 30 minutes or until the sauce has thickened and the vegetables are very tender. Remove from the heat.
4. Preheat the oven to 190C and lightly spray 12 muffin tins with cooking oil spray (or use silicone moulds if you have them)
5. Stir the parsley, flour and eggs through the sauce. Add the cooked spaghetti and 1 cup of the cheese and combine well.
6. Divide the bolognese sauce and spaghetti evenly into the prepared muffin holes. Sprinkle an even amount of the remaining cheese on top of each muffin hole.
7. Bake for 25-30 minutes until golden and firm. Cool in the muffin tin for 5 minutes. Then gently tip out onto a wire rack to cool completely.
8. One bolognese cup is one serve. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for 3-4 days. Enjoy reheated or cold.
