Ingredients #
- 600g pork minced meat, 15% fat
- 200g mushrooms
- 1 onion
- 2 garlic cloves
- a handful of fresh parsley
- 1 tbsp oil

Method #
Peel the onion and chop it into small pieces.
Slice mushrooms and mince garlic.
Chop fresh parsley leaving some for decoration.
Heat the oil in the large non-stick pan and fry the minced meat over high heat for around 5 minutes until browned stirring constantly.
Add onion and garlic and cook further for a few minutes until fragrant.
Add sliced mushrooms and continue to fry over high heat for about 8 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Season with salt, black pepper and paprika.
Pour in the tomato passata and bring to a boil.
Cover with a lid and simmer for 10 minutes stirring occasionally.
Taste and adjust seasonings.
Add chopped parsley and stir through.
Boil water for pasta.
Add Vesuvio pasta to the water with a pinch of salt and cook following the instructions on the package.
You can use any type of pasta but I like Vesuvio for its curly shape.
When the pasta is ready, drain and add to the sauce.
Mix all together and serve.
Decorate with fresh parsley.
