Cooking Steps
1
- Boil a large pot of salted water for the liguine.
- When boiling, add the linguine to the water and bring back to the boil.
- Cook until softened, 12 mins.
- Once cooked, drain in a colander and pop back in the pot. Drizzle with oil and stir through to stop it sticking together.
TIP: If you’re in a hurry you can boil the water in your kettle.
2
- Meanwhile, halve, peel and thinly slice the onion.
- Coarsely grate the carrot.
- Halve the tomatoes.
- Pick and roughly tear the basil leaves.
3
- Place a large pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil.
- Add the onion, carrot and beef mince and fry until browned, 6-8 mins. Use a spoon to break it up as it cooks.
- Season with salt and pepper. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw mince.
4
- Add the cherry tomatoes, chopped tomatoes, Worcester sauce and ½ tsp sugar (double for 4p) to the mince.
- Stir everything together and simmer for 5-6 mins. IMPORTANT: The mince is cooked when no longer pink in the middle.
- Season to taste with salt and pepper.
TIP: Loosen with a splash of water if necessary!
5
- After simmering, stir the cooked pasta and half the torn basil leaves into the sauce.
- Sprinkle the cheese over the pasta.
- Cover and continue to simmer for 1 min, until the cheese has melted slightly.
6
- Divide the pasta between bowls.
- Garnish with the remaining basil.
