Ingredients

454 g	lean steak mince beef or quorn
2 large can(s)	chopped tomatoes, or 1 can and some tomato puree
1 clove(s)	garlic, minced
100 g	frozen or fresh carrot batons (small sticks)
100 g	mushrooms, sliced
1 large	onion, roughly chopped
2 tbsp	dried Italian herbs, or mixed fresh thyme, oregano and sage
1 pinch(es)	ground black pepper
some	Worcestershire sauce, three or four good sloshes
150 g	dried pasta shapes, I prefer tricolour twists, or wholewheat for healthy option
1 cube(s)	beef or vegetable stock
1 glass(es)	red wine, optional if you have a bottle open
1 tbsp	olive oil, not virgin – just standard

Instructions

Note:Do not to use virgin olive as it is wasted when heated. Do not use sesame oil as it will go bitter.

In a large pan, that can be closely covered, heat oil gently and fry onion, mushrooms and garlic a little until onion is soft. Add mince and brown.

Add all the other ingredients (including the pasta) and some water to cover, give a good stir. Do not add salt. Cover the pan and simmer. Cook until the pasta is just soft, about 20 minutes, and thicken if needed. Taste and add salt/adjust seasoning.

Serving suggestions:Serve with garlic bread and/or a green salad.

Tip:Suitable for freezing, but the pasta does break up when reheated. To avoid that you can use wholewheat pasta, which is more robust.
