HOW TO DO IT

1 Over a medium heat, drizzle the oil into a large frying pan and fry the onion until soft, around 6-8 mins. Add the garlic and peppers and cook for a further 5 mins until the peppers have softened.

2 Mix in the beef and cook for a few mins until browned. Add the tomatoes and stir in the barbecue sauce, Worcestershire sauce, tomato puree, chilli power, if using, brown sugar and stock cube.

3 Bring to a simmer and cook for about 15 mins until the sauce has thickened and is not at all watery. Serve the mixture in the buns with grated Cheddar.

TIP FREEZE THE MINCE MIXTURE IN BATCHES. IT’S GREAT WITH NACHOS OR TACO BOWLS TOO.

'THAT'S NOT MY BABY'

Lying in the hospital bed, my husband Michael had tears of happiness in his eyes as he showed me a photo on his phone. 'Here she is,' he said proudly. 'This is our beautiful baby girl.'I stared at the photo and shook my head. 'No, that's not my baby,' I said. 'There must be a mistake.'It was August 2010 and I'd not long before had an emergency caesarean. I'd not had a chance to see Winnie when she arrived as she'd been whisked away for tests because she was nearly two months premature.
