RAPID RAGU
Much to my husband's horror, when I am feeling fragile and in need of coziness and comfort, my favourite supper is a bowl of mince/ground meat with some grated cheese on top, eaten by greedy, grateful spoonful out of a cereal bowl. I have dispensed with much of the usual, necessary chopping: I use cubetti di pancetta (that's how they're sold at my local supermarket) and a little caramelised onion from a jar. This is everything you could hope for, sweetly salving and as undemanding to make as it is rewarding to eat.

Steps:
- Heat the oil in a wide, medium-sized saucepan, and fry the pancetta until beginning to crisp.
- Add the lamb breaking it up with a fork in the bacony pan as it browns.
- Tip in the caramelized onions, Marsala, tomatoes, lentils and water and bring the pan to the boil.
- Simmer the ragu for 20 minutes stirring occasionally. Sprinkle over the cheese before serving, if using.
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 cups sliced onions (about 2 medium size onions)
- Heat a large saute pan over medium heat. Add the olive oil and heat. Add the onions and cook, stirring, until the onions are a deep golden brown and soft, about 25 to 30 minutes. Make sure to use a gentle heat and cook the onions slowly so they don't burn. Onions will keep in the fridge for up to 1 week.
