Cooking Steps
ā¢ Boil the kettle. Grate carrot. ā¢ Half-fill a large saucepan with boiling water and a pinch of salt. ā¢ Cook wholemeal fusilli in the boiling water until āal denteā, 12 minutes. ā¢ Reserve some pasta water (1/2 cup for 2 people / 1 cup for 4 people). Drain pasta, then return to pan. Drizzle with olive oil to prevent sticking.
TIP: 'Al dente' pasta is cooked through but still slightly firm in the centre.
ā¢ Meanwhile, heat a large frying pan over a medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Cook beef mince, breaking up with a spoon, until just browned, 2-3 minutes. ā¢ Add carrot and cook, stirring, until softened, 2-3 minutes. ā¢ Add garlic & herb seasoning, garlic paste and cook until fragrant, 1 minute. ā¢ Stir in passata, brown sugar and reserved pasta water (1/4 cup for 2 people / 1/2 cup for 4 people) and cook until slightly reduced, 2-3 minutes.
TIP: For best results, drain the oil from the pan before adding the seasoning and garlic paste.
ā¢ Remove pan from heat. Add cooked fusilli, baby spinach leaves and a drizzle of olive oil. ā¢ Stir to combine. Season to taste.
TIP: Add a splash more pasta water to loosen the sauce mixture, if needed.
ā¢ Divide beef and carrot fusilli between bowls. ā¢ Top with fetta cubes. Garnish with chilli flakes (if using). Enjoy!
