Ingredients

Method
  • 250 g Woolworths Beef Frikkadels
  • 600 g Woolworths Everything Tomato Paste Sauce
  • 500 g Woolworths Penne Pasta, cooked
  • 5 g fresh basil
  • ½ cup cream

Method

Ingredients

1. Add frikkadels to a pan over a medium. Add the tomato sauce and allow to warm through.

2. Add cooked penne directly to the pan and toss to coat well, adding a ladle of pasta water to help the sauce stick to the pasta, creating a velvetier sauce.

4. Optionally garnish with fresh basil and serve.

Cook’s note: To bulk up the recipe and keep some of the tomato sauce for another meal, add cream to the dish and use less tomato sauce.
