The star, who plays Mel Monroe in the Netflix drama, was sharing the latest recipe she made for her two children, Billie, five, and Jack, seven, and explained that she emulsified her homemade bolognese sauce for her daughter, who prefers it to be smooth rather than chunky. 

Sharing advice for fellow parents, she said: “Billie really enjoyed the emulsified meat sauce. So if you have a kid who doesn’t like chunky meat sauce, try emulsifying it. It worked wonders.”
