Provided by Sarah

Categories     Mains

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 15

3 large spring onions, roughly chopped
2 large carrots, roughly chopped
3 large celery sticks, roughly chopped
1/2 red chilli, deseeded
2 tablespoons olive oil (30 ml)
1 pound ground pork (pork mince)
1 tablespoon fennel seed
1 teaspoon salt + more to salt the pasta water
1 tablespoon dried oregano
1 pound dried gluten free penne
3 medium cloves garlic, finely chopped
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar (!5 ml)
1 can chopped tomatoes (15 oz | 425g)
1 cup water (240 ml)
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Roughly chop spring onions, carrots and celery sticks. Add to a high powered blender or food processor along with the deseeded chili. Blitz it until it becomes a chunky paste. If you're using a food processor, don't worry about pre-chopping.
  • Heat the olive oil in a large skillet/frying pan. When the oil is hot, add the chunky vegetable paste. Cook 2-3 minutes until fragrant.
  • In a mixing bowl: add the pork, 1 teaspoon salt, fennel and oregano. Mix until thoroughly combined.
  • Add the pork mixture to the frying pan with the vegetable paste and brown the meat on a medium heat, about 5 minutes.
  • Fill large pot of water 2/3 of the way full and add 1 tablespoon sea salt. Bring the water to a boil and then carefully add in the pasta. Cook the pasta in boiling water until al dente - springy & chewy & not mushy. It should take about 10 minutes. Make sure to stir often. Gluten free pasta likes to clump so you really need to keep it moving to prevent it from sticking together.
  • While the pasta is cooking return to your ragu. Add in the vinegar, garlic, black pepper, chopped tomatoes + 1 cup of water and let simmer for 10 minutes on a medium-low heat.

GROUND PORK WITH CARROTS AND PEPPERS



Ground Pork With Carrots and Peppers image

This is a variation on a recipe from an old friend. I added the carrots to save having to prepare an additional side dish and my family likes it better. The peppers are added in 2 stages, so some are still slightly crisp.
