Ingredients
  

  • 1 ½ pound ground beef (mince beef)
  • 1 pound pasta shell
  • ½ tablespoon Italian seasoning
  • 750 g Passata (tomato sauce)
  • 2 beef stock I used OXO but you can use any available to you
  • 2 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • ½ cup onions finely chopped
  • 1 teaspoon garlic paste
  • 1 cup Single cream
  • 1 cup cheddar cheese
  • salt and pepper

Instructions
 

  • Heat oil in a pan large skillet or pan over medium heat. Add chopped onions and saute until soft and translucent
  • Add ground beef, break it up and cook until brown. Then add the garlic paste, salt, black pepper, chilli flakes, Italian seasoning, crumble the beef stock cubes over and stir to combine. Pour the passata over the browned beef, stir to combine and simmer on medium heat for 20 minutes
  • In the meantime, cook pasta in salted water according to packet instructions. Drain and set aside, if you cooked the pasta before cooking the sauce, add about a tablespoon of oil to the pasta, this stops it from sticking together. Reserve about a cup of pasta water for later.
