The addition of milk takes this Gnocchi Bolognese Bake to another level. It is rich and full of flavour with a molten cheesy topping and made with the simplest of ingredients. The result is a hearty and comforting meal perfect for feeding a crowd or enjoying as leftovers throughout the week. And the best part? This recipe requires only a handful of simple ingredients, making it a budget-friendly option that’s still full of flavour.
Note 1 – Milk adds richness and depth to Bolognese sauce, helps tenderise the meat, and helps remove the acidity from the tomatoes. If you prefer not to use it, omit it from the recipe (no substitute is required).
Note 2 – The longer the cooking time, the more intense and flavourful. You could leave this on the stovetop for up to 3-4 hours. Just make sure you stir it every half an hour and add 1/4 cup of water if the sauce sticks to the base of the pan.
MAKE AHEAD AND LEFTOVERS – Refrigerate for up to 3 days. Freeze for up to 2 months. Thaw completely in the fridge overnight before reheating. Reheat in the microwave or on the stove.
