Cooking Steps
1
- Boil a pot of salted water for the pasta.
- When boiling, add the pasta, bring back to the boil and cook until softened, 10-12 mins.
- Drain in a colander and return to the pot, off the heat. Drizzle with oil and toss to prevent sticking.
- Meanwhile, halve, peel and finely chop the onion. Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press).
- Halve and deseed the pepper. Chop into 2cm chunks.
TIP: To save time you can boil the water in your kettle.
2
- Place a pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil.
- Fry the onion until softened, 4-5 mins.
- Add the beef, garlic and paprika. IMPORTANT: Wash hands and equipment after handling raw mince. Mince is cooked when no longer pink in the middle.
- Fry until browned, 5-6 mins. Break the beef up with a spoon as it cooks. Season with salt and pepper.
3
- Add the pepper, passata and Worcester sauce. Cook for 6-8 mins.
- Add the cooked pasta to the pan along with half the cheese. Mix well to evenly coat.
- Taste and season with salt and pepper.
- Cook until the pasta is warmed through, 2-3 mins.
4
- Divide the pasta between deep plates or bowls.
- Top with a dollop of creme fraiche.
- Garnish with the remaining cheese.
