Serves: 4
Prep: 15 min
Cook: 30 min


Ingredients

Olive Oil
250 gms pork mince
250 gms beef mince
1.5 brown onions (diced)
2 cloves garlic
2 tablespoons paprika

The aim is to brown the onions before adding the meat, and then browning the meat before adding the tomato.

Step 1

Add the onion to a fry pan lightly covered in olive oil. When starting to sweat - add 1 clove worth of garlic. Brown.

Step 2
Start the pasta, it should then be finished around the same time as the meat. Add cracked pepper when drained.

Step 3

On a low to medium heat, add the meat. Separate and combine with the onion. Start browning

Step 4

Add the herbs & spices and the other garlic clove, continue browning

Step 5

Add the passata and the tomato paste - turn the heat up to medium.


When done, combine with pasta and serve with parsely
