Instructions

Leftover Roast Beef Pasta Bake
    Cup of Yum
  1. Spray a large deep pan (I used my favourite Chef’s pan) with olive oil spray. Add the sliced onions and mushrooms and cook over low heat, stirring often, until softened - about 10 minutes.
  2. Add the beef stock and Worcestershire sauce and bring to simmer.
  3. Stir in the mustard (I used Dijon you can also use wholegrain).
  4. Add the cornflour slurry, stirring to combine.
  5. Stir in the quark cheese and reduced fat sour cream.
  6. Add the roast beef (and you can add some of the gravy if you happen to have any) and stir to combine. Have a taste and add salt if needed.
  7. Stir in the cooked pasta so that it is coated in the sauce.
  8. Preheat the grill (broiler)to medium-high. Transfer to a baking dish (or you can use the pan if it is oven safe). If it looking a little dry you can stir in some of the reserved pasta water or a little beef stock Sprinkle with the grated Parmesan and add freshly ground pepper.
  9. Cook under the grill for about 5 minutes or until golden. Sprinkle with fresh parsley and serve maybe with some steamed greens on the side.
