Instructions

In a large pan, fry the onions until they begin to soften, then add the garlic and the leek. Fry for 2-3 minutes
Add the minced beef and cook until browned, constantly breaking up and stirring the meat to get rid of any big lumps and allow it to brown all over.
Add in the chopped tomatoes and tomato puree and bring to a simmer.
Stir in the grated carrot
Crumble in the beef oxo cube, then add the worcestershire sauce, soy sauce, honey and salt and pepper. Stir together.
Simmer for 35-40 minutes until the sauce is rich and dark (you will need to stir occasionally and can add a little water if it’s getting too dry)
