Instructions

  • Heat 1 teaspoon Olive oil and cook 1 Onion and 2 Garlic cloves until softened, about 3 minutes.
  • Add 500 g Ground beef and break up with a wooden spoon. Add 2 teaspoon Italian seasoning, 1 pinch Sea salt and 1 pinch Ground black pepper. Cook for 4 minutes.
  • Once the beef has browned, add 400 g Chopped tomatoes, 2 tablespoon Tomato puree, 250 g Pasta shapes and 750 ml Vegetable stock. Bring to the boil then reduce the heat and simmer for 15 minutes.
  • When the sauce has thickened and the pasta is almost cooked, add 235 g Cannellini beans and 150 ml Reduced fat creme fraiche.
  • Cook for a further 2 minutes.
  • Top with 30 g Parmesan and Fresh parsley before serving.

Notes

  • Depending on how high you are cooking this, you may need to add a bit more stock to make sure that the pasta has enough liquid to cook in.
  • Make sure you use a very large pan to make this, as it makes as big batch and everything is cooked together.
  • You can swap the canned tomatoes for passata (tomato sauce) if you want a smoother sauce, but we like the added texture.
  • To give this a kick of heat, you could stir some red pepper flakes/chili flakes into the mix.
