Ingredients:

455g Garofalo Organic Durum Wheat Semolina Pasta Penne Rigate

2 Tbsp Olive Oil

1 small yellow onion, finely chopped

2 cloves of garlic, minced

Pinch of red pepper flakes

500g Sidecar Australian Lean Beef Mince

1 can Mutti Polpa Finely Chopped Tomatoes

½ cup heavy cream

½ tsp salt and pepper to taste

¼ tsp freshly ground black pepper, more as needed

½ cup chopped fresh basil leaves

Grated Auricchio Grana Padano or other hard grating cheese for serving

Instructions

1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add Garofalo’s Organic Durum Wheat Semolina Pasta Penne Rigate and cook till al dente. A dash of olive oil can be added to prevent the pasta from sticking together.
2. Heat olive oil in a pan. Saute onions, garlic and red pepper flakes till onions are translucent. Add Sidecar’s Australian Lean Beef Mince.
3. Once the meat is browned, carefully pour in Mutti’s Polpa Finely Chopped Tomatoes. Season with salt and pepper then stir to combine the sauce and meat. Bring to a simmer and continue to cook uncovered, stirring occasionally, for approx. 10 minutes.
4. Reduce heat to low and stir in the heavy cream. Season with additional salt and pepper as needed.
5. Drain the pasta, and add it to the saucepan. Toss gently to combine, add chopped basil and mix well. Serve immediately with grated cheese
