Stella Pitts

Report

Nduja ragù is a simple meat sauce for pasta that harnesses all the delicious flavour of Italian nduja sausage from Calabria in a silky, rich and tangy sauce. Packed with flavour and perfect with any pasta but especially penne quills.

Instructions

Fry the nduja for 2-3 minutes until it dissolves and renders out some of its fat.
Add the ground beef and mix well. Press down to separate the meat
Add the garlic and basil and stir for 3-4 minutes.
Pour in the tomato and ½ can of water and add a little salt & pepper (about ½ tsp salt as nduja can often be seasoned too) and bring to a simmer.
Reduce the heat to low and simmer with the lid on very gently for 1 hour. Remove from the heat and check for seasoning, adding a little more salt if you think it needs some.
Cook your pasta until al dente then drain, retaining a little of the cooking liquid.
Add to pan and spoon over enough of the sauce to coat generously. Add a little of the cooking liquid too to loosen the sauce.
