    Marvellous MINCE

    Sep 15, 2021 7 minutes

    ONE-PAN BEEF AND BASIL PASTA

    SERVES 4 PREP AND COOK: 25 MINS

    500g beef mince
    1 onion, finely chopped
    575g jar roasted garlic tomato pasta sauce
    400g can crushed tomatoes
    375g farfalle pasta
    1 cup fresh basil leaves, plus extra to serve
    Shaved parmesan, to serve

    1 Heat an oiled, large, deep frying pan over a medium to high heat. Add beef and onion. Cook, stirring to break up mince, for about 5 minutes, or until browned.

    2 Stir in pasta sauce, tomatoes and 2 cups of water until combined. Add pasta. Season with salt and pepper. Bring to a boil. Simmer, covered, for 10 minutes.

    3 Uncover. Cook, stirring occasionally, for a further 5 minutes, or until pasta is cooked and sauce is slightly thickened. Stir in basil leaves. Serve with shaved parmesan and extra basil leaves.

    Great idea

    Try replacing farfalle pasta with penne or rigatoni, for a change. Dish is best cooked just before serving. Serve with a side salad.
