Mary Berry's Unexpected Secret Ingredient For The Best Spaghetti Bolognese

If there’s one thing telly icon and baking legend Mary Berry seems to love, it’s a secret ingredient.

First, we learned that she puts crème fraîche in her cheat’s lasagne. Then, it turned out she sawears by semolina for crispity-crunchy roasted sweet potato.

And now, we’ve learned that her no-fuss, oven-baked spag bol recipe uses redcurrant jam.

The trick can be used in a regular on-the-hob spaghetti bolognese recipe, too. But for Mary Berry’s midweek-friendly meal, it packs a much-needed punch to the flavour profile.
