Cooking Steps
• Boil the kettle. Finely chop garlic. Grate carrot. • 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. Season, then transfer to a bowl. • Half-fill a large saucepan with the boiling water over high heat, then add a pinch of salt. Cook linguine in boiling water until ‘al dente’, 9 minutes. • Reserve some pasta water (1/4 cup for 2 people / 1/2 cup for 4 people), then drain linguine and return to the saucepan.
• Meanwhile, heat a large frying pan over a medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. • Discard liquid from pulled beef packaging. • When oil is hot, cook pulled beef and carrot, breaking up with a spoon, until browned, 2-3 minutes. • Add tomato paste, Nan's special seasoning, garlic & herb seasoning and remaining garlic and cook until fragrant, 1-2 minutes.
• Reduce heat to medium, then add longlife cream (see ingredients), reserved pasta water and beef-style stock powder and cook, stirring, until warmed through, 1 minute. • Remove pan from the heat, then add linguine and toss to coat.
TIP: Add a splash more water to your sauce if it's looking dry!
• Roughly chop tomato. In a medium bowl, combine tomato, salad leaves and a drizzle of white wine vinegar and olive oil. Season to taste. • Divide creamy pulled beef ragu between bowls. • Top with garlic pangrattato. Serve with mixed salad.
