COOKING NOTES

The ultimate comfort food! There’s nothing better than a rich, warm bowl of pasta, and this recipe uses our Smokey Chipotle Ready-to-Heat Pulled Pork for an extra kick of flavour and a unique twist on your usual Italian pasta recipe.

INGREDIENTS

1x 450g pack of Smokey Chipotle Ready-to-Heat Pulled Pork
500g dried pappardelle
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 small onion, chopped
4 cloves garlic
1/2 cup red wine
2 cups crushed tomatoes
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
Handful of chopped parsley
1 cup shredded parmesan cheese

METHOD

  1. Bring a large pot of water to a boil and cook pappardelle according to package directions.
  2. Prepare Pulled Pork as per package instructions.
  3. While pasta is cooking and pulled pork is heating, heat olive oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Cook onion and garlic until onions have softened and started to brown, about 5 minutes.
  4. Add red wine to deglaze the pan. Be sure to scrape up any of the brown bits that have stuck to the bottom of the pan.
  5. Pour in crushed tomatoes. Season with salt and pepper. Add in pulled pork and mix well.
  6. Continue cooking for 5–10 more minutes or until sauce is warmed through.
  7. Add cooked pappardelle and toss to combine. Portion into pasta bowls and sprinkle with chopped parsley and parmesan cheese to finish.
  8. Drizzle with olive oil and serve
