Quick Creamy Beef & Veggie Pasta
with Parmesan
This saucy creation uses a creamy tomato sauce to coat spaghetti, with chunks of tender beef mince and flavoursome Parmesan. Add greens that gently wilt when tossed with the pasta, and you’ve got a new recipe that's sure to please everyone.
Keep an eye out...Due to recent sourcing challenges, we’ve replaced trottole with spaghetti, which may be a little different to what’s pictured. Don’t worry, your recipe will be just as delicious!

Cooking Steps
• Bring a large saucepan of salted water to the boil. Finely chop celery and carrot. Thinly slice white and light green parts of leek. Finely chop garlic. • Cook spaghetti in the boiling water until 'al dente', 10 minutes. Reserve some pasta water (1/4 cup for 2 people / 1/2 cup for 4 people), then drain spaghetti and return to the saucepan. Drizzle with a little olive oil to prevent sticking.
TIP: 'Al dente' pasta is cooked through but still slightly firm in the centre.
• In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over a medium-high heat. Cook beef mince, breaking it up with a spoon, until just browned, 3-4 minutes. • Add celery, carrot and leek and cook, stirring, until softened, 4-5 minutes.
• Reduce the heat to medium, then cook garlic, tomato paste, Nan's special seasoning and garlic & herb seasoning until fragrant, 1 minute. • Add longlife cream (see ingredients), reserved pasta water, beef-style stock powder and cook, stirring, until warmed through, 1 minute. • Remove pan from the heat, then add cooked spaghetti and toss to coat. Season to taste.
TIP: Add a splash more water to your sauce if it's looking dry!
TIP: Toss the pasta and sauce in the saucepan if your frying pan isn't big enough.
• Divide creamy beef and veggie pasta between bowls. • Sprinkle over grated Parmesan cheese to serve.
