Cooking Steps

1

Preheat oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced. Bring a large saucepan of salted water to the boil. Finely chop garlic. Thickly slice leek. Cut carrot into bite-sized chunks. Place leek and carrot on a lined oven tray. Drizzle with olive oil, season with salt and toss to coat. Spread out evenly, then roast until tender, 25-30 minutes.

While the veggies are roasting, cook orecchiette in boiling water until 'al dente', 8 minutes. Reserve some pasta water (1/2 cup for 2 people / 1 cup for 4 people), then drain and return orecchiette to the saucepan.

TIP: 'Al dente' pasta is cooked through but still slightly firm in the centre.

Little cooks: Older kids can help add the pasta to the saucepan under adult supervision. Be careful, the water is boiling!

While the orecchiette is cooking, heat a large frying pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Cook beef mince, breaking it up with a spoon, until browned, 2-3 minutes. Add garlic, garlic & herb seasoning and tomato paste and cook until fragrant, 1-2 minutes.

Add tomato sugo, beef-style stock powder, the brown sugar and reserved pasta water and stir to combine. Reduce heat to medium, then simmer until slightly thickened, 2-3 minutes.

Little cooks: Kids can help out with measuring the brown sugar.
