Pasta with Beef and Sauce

Pasta with Beef and Sauce is a hearty and flavorful kosher dish that combines tender beef with a rich tomato sauce, served over al dente pasta. This comforting meal is perfect for a cozy dinner for two, bringing a taste of American cuisine with a kosher twist.

Ingredients

• Pasta (e.g., spaghetti) - 200 grams
• Ground beef (kosher) - 250 grams
• Olive oil - 2 tablespoons
• Onion, diced - 1 medium
• Garlic, minced - 2 cloves
• Canned crushed tomatoes - 400 grams
• Tomato paste - 2 tablespoons
• Italian seasoning - 1 teaspoon
• Salt - 1 teaspoon
• Black pepper - 1/2 teaspoon
• Parmesan cheese, grated - 30 grams (optional)
• Fresh basil, chopped - 2 tablespoons (for garnish)

Steps

1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
2. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté until translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
3. Add the minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for an additional minute until fragrant.
4. Increase the heat to medium-high and add the ground beef. Cook until browned, breaking it apart with a spatula, about 5-7 minutes.
5. Stir in the canned crushed tomatoes, tomato paste, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Bring the sauce to a simmer and let it cook for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
6. Once the sauce has thickened slightly, add the cooked pasta to the skillet and toss until well combined with the sauce.
7. Serve hot, garnished with grated Parmesan cheese and chopped fresh basil.
