Ingredients
Bolognese
- 1 onion
- 1 carrot
- 2 tsp olive oil
- 1 can chopped tomatoes
- 7oz frozen Quorn mince
- 1/2 tsp Marmite
- 3.5fl. oz vegetable stock
- 2 cloves garlic
- 1 tsp oregano
- 5 fresh basil leaves
Boats
- 2 courgettes
- Garlic fry light
- 2 tbsp Bechamel sauce
- 2.63oz grated mozzarella
- 5 shredded basil leaves
- Black pepper
Instructions
Step 1
First up, we make the Bolognese! Dice the Onion and Carrot and place them in your Ninja Foodi with some Olive Oil. Set it to sauté on a medium heat and cook until soft
Step 2
Reduce the heat to a Medium/Low (you don’t want to burn the Garlic) and crush your two Garlic Cloves into the dish. Gently simmer until fragrant
Step 3
Add in the Chopped Tomatoes, the Marmite and the Oregano. Increase the heat back to Medium
Step 4
Tip in the Frozen Quorn Mince and stir while it cooks. This will soak in the sauce as it defrosts so once it starts to thicken, add in the stock
Step 5
Reduce the temperature and leave the Bolognese to simmer for 10 minutes
Step 6
Stir in your Basil Leaves so that they wilt and remove your Bolognese from the heat
Step 7
Safely remove your dish and rinse, you’ll need to pop this back into the Ninja once it’s clean and dry!
Step 8
Next we make the boats! Cut the Courgette in half lengthways
Step 9
Scoop out the seeds so that they make little boat shapes (tip: I always save these as they are great to thicken soups and sauces)
Step 10
Set your Ninja to the roast setting and place the Courgette boats in at 170°C for 15 minutes. Depending on the size of your Courgettes, you may need to use the rack
Step 11
Once these are cooked, carefully spoon in the Bolognese and top with Bechamel
Step 12
Top with Grated Mozzarella and set your Ninja Foodi to air crisp at 200°C for 5 minutes
Step 13
Remove your Courgette boats from the Foodi. Serve with Shredded Basil Leaves and Cracked Black Pepper
