Ingredients
Braised Beef Ragù
- 1 red onion, thinly sliced
- 1 pottle sundried tomato paste
- 1 can chopped tomatoes
- ½ cup water
- 1 pack pulled beef
- 1 teaspoon brown sugar
- ½ teaspoon balsamic vinegar
- ½ teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
Fettuccine
- 1 pack fresh fettuccine pasta
Salad
- ½ punnet cherry tomatoes
- 1 avocado, sliced 1cm
- 1 baby cos lettuce, end trimmed 1cm and roughly chopped *
- 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
- Drizzle of olive oil
- Drizzle of balsamic vinegar
To Serve
- ½ bag shaved Parmesan cheese
- 2 tablespoons basil leaves
Steps
-
Bring a medium pot of salted water to the boil. Heat a drizzle of oil in a large fry-pan on medium-high heat and cook onion for about 3 minutes, until tender. Add sundried tomato paste, canned tomatoes and water to pan, bring to a simmer and cook for 4-5 minutes.
-
While onions are cooking, shake fettuccine to separate strands and add to pot of boiling water. Cook for about 3 minutes, until just tender. Reserve ½ cup of pasta water, drain fettuccine and return to pot with a drizzle of olive oil to prevent sticking. Set aside.
-
Add remaining braised beef ragù ingredients to pan with tomato mixture and continue to simmer for about 4 minutes, until beef is heated through. Add a little reserved pasta water to the sauce if it becomes too thick.
-
Add all salad ingredients to a medium bowl and toss to combine. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
-
To serve, divide fettuccine between bowls, spoon over braised beef ragù and sprinkle over Parmesan cheese and basil. Serve salad on the side.
