The most popular pasta recipes

Ingredients:

• 100 g stale sourdough bread
• 2 cloves of garlic
• ½ a head of cauliflower (400g)
• olive oil
• 1 onion
• 400 ml semi-skimmed milk
• 300 g dried spaghetti
• 70 g Cheddar cheese

Method:

Tear the bread into a food processor. Peel and add the garlic, then tear in any nice leaves from your cauliflower. Add ½ a tablespoon of olive oil, blitz into fairly fine crumbs, then tip into a large non-stick frying pan on a medium heat. Cook for 15 minutes, or until golden and crisp, stirring occasionally.

Meanwhile, peel the onion, then roughly chop with the cauliflower, stalk and all.

Tip the crispy crumbs into a bowl, returning the pan to the heat. Pour in the milk and add the chopped veg, bring just to the boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover and simmer.

Alongside, cook the pasta in a pan of boiling salted water according to the packet instructions. Just before the pasta is ready, carefully pour the cauliflower mixture into the processor (there’s no need to wash it), grate in the cheese, blitz until super smooth, then season to perfection, and return to the pan. Drain the pasta, reserving a mugful of starchy cooking water.

Toss the pasta through the sauce, loosening with a splash of reserved cooking water, if needed, then serve with the crispy crumbs, for sprinkling.

FLAVOUR BOOST

Crunchy breadcrumbs like this are a joy, and would work on anything from salads to soups and stews, adding a nice bit of texture and extra flavour.

EASY SWAPS

The principle of the sauce can be embraced with your favourite veg, go orange with carrot or squash, or green with broccoli, have fun with it!

Ingredients:

• 4 tbsp olive oil (or use the oil from your chargrilled veg, see below)
• 1 large onion, finely chopped
• 4 garlic cloves, finely sliced
• 250g chargrilled Mediterranean veg (peppers and aubergines, if possible) from a jar, pot or deli counter, drained if in oil (you can use this oil in place of the olive oil) and roughly chopped
• 400g can chopped tomatoes
• 1 tbsp small capers
• 2 tbsp raisins
• 350g rigatoni, penne or another short pasta shape
• bunch basil leaves, picked
• parmesan (or vegetarian alternative), shaved, to serve

Method:

Heat the oil in a large pan and cook the onion for 8-10 mins until starting to caramelise (or for longer if you have time – the sweeter the better). Add the garlic for the final 2 mins of cooking time.

Tip in the mixed veg, tomatoes, capers and raisins. Season well and simmer, uncovered, for 10 mins, or until you have a rich sauce.

Meanwhile, boil the kettle. Pour the kettleful of water into a large pan with a little salt and bring back to the boil. Add the pasta and cook until tender with a little bite, then drain, reserving some of the pasta water. Tip the pasta into the sauce, adding a splash of pasta water if it needs loosening. Scatter with the basil leaves and parmesan, if you like, and serve straight from the pan

In a Dutch oven, cook sausage, ground beef, onion, and garlic over medium heat until well browned. Stir in crushed tomatoes, tomato paste, tomato sauce, and water. Season with sugar, basil, fennel seeds, Italian seasoning, 1 teaspoon salt, pepper, and 2 tablespoons parsley. Simmer, covered, for about 1 1/2 hours, stirring occasionally.

Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook lasagna noodles in boiling water for 8 to 10 minutes. Drain noodles, and rinse with cold water. In a mixing bowl, combine ricotta cheese with egg, remaining parsley, and 1/2 teaspoon salt.

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

To assemble, spread 1 1/2 cups of meat sauce in the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking dish. Arrange 6 noodles lengthwise over meat sauce. Spread with one half of the ricotta cheese mixture. Top with a third of mozzarella cheese slices. Spoon 1 1/2 cups meat sauce over mozzarella, and sprinkle with 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese. Repeat layers, and top with remaining mozzarella and Parmesan cheese. Cover with foil: to prevent sticking, either spray foil with cooking spray, or make sure the foil does not touch the cheese.

Ingredients:

• 1 tablespoon Tomato Puree
• 2 Freshly Chopped Tomatoes
• 1 Onion
• 1 Carrot
• 2 Garlic Cloves
• 1 Tablespoon Dried Oregano
• 3 oz full cream milk 
• Worcestershire sauce 
• 400g / 14 OZ Minced Beef
• Red Wine 

Preparation:

Take a non-stick frying pan and add one tablespoon olive oil to it at high flame.

Take fresh vegetables like carrots and onion. Grate the onion and carrot and add them to the pan. 

Season the grated carrot and onion with some salt and peppers. 

Take 2 cloves of garlic and add them for a special flavor into the frying pan after crushing it. 

Sprinkle some dried oregano on it according to your taste. 

Continue frying carrot and onion using the ladle till they lightly sweat off. There is no need to turn them into brown color. 

Make a small hole in the center of the frying pan with the help of a ladle. And add minced beef into the center of the frying pan. 

After the minced beef gets sweated off, pour fresh tomato puree onto it. This tomato puree will enrich the flavor of your spaghetti to make it similar to bolognese.

Add red wine but its quantity should be according to the thickness of the sauce you want to make. Instead of red wine, you can add sauce syrup as well for strengthening the flavor. 

Put some chopped tomatoes into the frying pan to create awesome goodness in the pan. 

Pour a small amount of Worcestershire sauce and heat the mixture until it spices and darkens the minced meat. 

Keep the mixture simmering on the stove for 5 to 6 minutes.

Finally, add full cream milk to the bolognese to give your spaghetti a smooth silky finish.

Article from: https://www.jamieoliver.com/recipes/pasta-recipes/sardine-spaghetti/

Ingredients:

• 4 Method Steps
• 500g Coles Australian Pork & Beef 3 Star Mince
• 2 garlic cloves, crushed

• 1 tbsp basil, chopped
• 1/3 cup (25g) parmesan, finely grated

Article from: https://www.taste.com.au/recipes/gluten-free-italian-meatballs-spaghetti/LaWQvuhr?r=recipes/glutenfreepastarecipes&c=mt69re3s/Gluten%20free%20pasta%20recipes

Ingredients:

• 150 g gluten-free rice flour , plus extra for dusting
• 50 g potato starch
• 1 tablespoon corn flour
• 2 tablespoons xanthan gum
• ¼ teaspoon fine sea salt
• 3 large free-range eggs
• 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil

Method:

Place the ingredients in a food processor and blitz to a rough dough. Tip out onto a flour-dusted surface and knead for 3 to 5 minutes, or until smooth.

Cut the dough into four pieces, then carefully press a portion out flat with your fingertips and start to roll it out using a pasta machine. Start at the widest setting and roll the dough through it, lightly dusting with the rice flour if it sticks. Roll the pasta through the widest setting a second time, then click the machine down a setting and roll the dough through again.

Now, start clicking the settings down, rolling the pasta through each setting twice – gluten-free pasta isn’t as elastic as standard pasta, so make sure you avoid using the two narrowest settings, otherwise it may rip. Once you have a thin sheet of pasta (about 2mm thick), set aside on a flour-dusted surface and cover with a damp tea towel to avoid it drying out, then continue with the remaining dough.

Now’s the time to transform your dough into whichever variety of pasta you like. If you want to make tagliatelle, roll the pasta through the tagliatelle setting on your pasta machine, or use a sharp knife to slice the pasta sheets lengthways into long strips (roughly 7mm thick), placing on a flour-dusted tray as you go. To cook, place in a pan of boiling salted water for around 3 minutes, or until al dente, then serve how you like it.
