2. Next, add all the spices, followed by the mince, breaking it up with a wooden spoon until it browns and all the juices have absorbed. It’s important that all the natural juices released are cooked out before proceeding to the next step.
3. Add the tomato paste and sauté for 2 mins to release the flavour.
4. Add the tomatoes, sugar, salt, pepper and water.
5. Bring to the boil then turn the heat down to simmer for 1 hour, until the sauce reduces.
