Cooking Steps
• Bring a large saucepan of salted water to the boil. • Cook linguine in boiling water until ‘al dente’, 9 minutes. Reserve some pasta water (1/3 cup for 2 people / 2/3 cup for 4 people). Drain, then return linguine to pan. • Meanwhile, finely chop garlic. Thinly slice button mushrooms. TIP: 'Al dente' pasta is cooked through but still slightly firm in the centre.
• In a large frying pan, heat a generous drizzle of olive oil over a medium-high heat. Cook panko breadcrumbs (see ingredients), stirring, until golden brown, 3 minutes. • Add 1/2 the garlic and cook until fragrant, 1-2 minutes. Transfer to a medium bowl and season to taste.
• Return frying pan to a high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Cook mushrooms until browned and softened, 3-4 minutes. • Add beef mince and cook, breaking up with a spoon, until just browned, 3-4 minutes. • Reduce heat to low, then add tomato paste (see ingredients), garlic & herb seasoning, and remaining garlic and cook until fragrant, 1 minute. Add beef-style stock powder, tomato sugo and reserved pasta water and simmer until slightly reduced, 1-2 minutes. Season.
• While the sauce is cooking, thinly slice apple (see ingredients). In a large bowl, combine apple, mixed salad leaves and a drizzle of balsamic vinegar and olive oil. Season. • Return linguine to pan with sauce and toss to combine. • Divide beef and mushroom linguine between bowls. Top with garlic pangrattato. Serve with apple salad. Enjoy!
