Instructions

Cook the Pasta
1
  • Boil a large pot of salted water for the pasta.
  • When boiling, add the pasta to the water and bring back to the boil.
  • Cook until softened, 12 mins. 
  • Once cooked, drain in a colander and pop back in the pot (off the heat).
  • Drizzle with oil and stir through to prevent sticking.

TIP: If you’re in a hurry you can boil the water in your kettle.

Fry the Mince
2
  • Meanwhile, place a pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil.
  • Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press).
  • Once the pan is hot, add the mince and cook until browned, 5-6 mins. Use a spoon to break it up as it cooks. IMPORTANT: Wash hands and equipment after handling raw mince.
  • Add the garlic and cook, stirring, until fragrant, 1 min.
Simmer the Sauce
3
  • When the garlic is fragrant, add the stock powder, chopped tomatoes, chilli flakes (use less if you don't like spice), ¼ tsp sugar and 100ml water (double both for 4p) to the pan.
  • Bring to the boil then reduce to a simmer.
  • Cook until thickened, stirring occasionally, 10-12 mins. IMPORTANT: Mince is safe to eat when no longer pink in the middle.

TIP: Add a splash of water to the sauce if it becomes too dry.

Start the Salad
4
  • Meanwhile, in a salad bowl, combine the balsamic vinegar, 1 tbsp oil (double for 4p) and a pinch of sugar.
  • Mix well to combine.
  • Just before serving, toss the salad leaves through the dressing.
Finishing Touches
5
  • When everything is ready, add the drained linguine to the sauce in the pan.
  • Toss until coated in the sauce and warmed through, 1 min.
  • Season to taste with salt and pepper.
Garnish and Serve
6
  • Share the beef linguine between your bowls.
  • Top with a sprinkling of cheese.
  • Serve the balsamic salad alongside.
