Cooking Steps
• Boil the kettle. Fill a medium saucepan with boiling water and a good pinch
of salt.
• Cook fettuccine in the boiling water until 'al dente', 11 minutes.
• Reserve 1/4 cup of pasta water, then drain and return fettuccine to pan.
Drizzle with a little olive oil to prevent sticking.
TIP: 'Al dente' pasta is cooked through but still slightly firm in the centre.
• While the fettuccine is cooking, roughly chop brown onion.
• Grate carrot and zucchini.
• In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over high heat. Cook beef
mince and brown onion, breaking up mince with a spoon, until starting to
brown, 2-3 minutes.
• Add carrot and zucchini and cook, stirring, until softened, 2-3 minutes.
• Add garlic & herb seasoning and cook until fragrant, 1 minute.
• Reduce heat to medium-high, then add tomato sugo, reserved pasta water
and the butter to pan. Cook, stirring, until slightly reduced, 1-2 minutes.
• Remove from heat, then add cooked fettuccine.
• Toss to combine and season to taste.
• Divide beef bolognese and fettuccine between bowls.
• Sprinkle with Cheddar cheese to serve. Enjoy!
