Ingredients
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 500 g beef mince
- 1 brown onion, finely chopped
- 4 garlic cloves, roughly chopped
- 1 tbsp taco seasoning
- 2 cups (500 ml) tomato passata
- 1 tbsp tomato sauce (ketchup)
- Salt and black pepper
- 500 g spaghetti
- ½ cup sour cream
- 1 cup shredded tasty cheese
- Cheesy corn chips, Tabasco sauce , to serve
- 1 tsp finely shredded curly parsley, to serve (optional)
Instructions
- Heat a large frying pan over medium heat and add the oil. Add the beef mince and brown it well, then add the onion and garlic and fry for 3 minutes, or until softened. Add the taco seasoning, passata and tomato sauce, and season with salt and pepper. Cover and simmer for 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, bring a large saucepan of water to the boil and season it generously with salt. Add the pasta and cook for 2 minutes less than it says on the package. When the pasta is ready, use tongs to transfer it to the meat mixture with about ½ a cup of the pasta water. Mix well to combine until the sauce coats the pasta. Stir through half the sour cream, plus the cheese, then transfer to a serving plate. Serve with corn chips, extra sour cream and Tabasco. Sprinkle with the parsley (if using).
