Beef Mince & Pesto Pasta

with Flaked Almonds & Garden Salad

Here's the perfect dish for messy Monday: our beef works a treat with the basil pesto-laced red sauce. Al dente spaghetti brings the two components together, and makes sure that none of the delicious sauce goes to waste.

We’ve replaced the spaghetti in this recipe with fettuccine due to local ingredient availability. It’ll be just as delicious, just follow your recipe card!

TIP: ‘Al dente’ pasta is cooked through but still slightly firm in the centre.
