It does not always have to be a tomato-meat sauce, so today I would like to introduce you to my other variant. Here is a recipe for baked mini-macaroni with spicy meat sauce.

ingredients

  • 500 g of mixed minced meat
  • 100 ml dry red wine
  • 200 ml roast stock
  • 2-3 tablespoons tomato paste (with root vegetables)
  • 1 onion, finely diced
  • 2-3 cloves of garlic, finely diced
  • some splash of Worcestershire
  • Salt, pepper, paprika rosenscharf
  • some cornstarch to tie
  • 1 pack of mini macaroni
  • Cheese for baking

preparation

  1. Put the pasta water and cook the mini-macaroni according to the instructions. Little tip, I cook the noodles always a little shorter, as they cook later in the oven again.
  2. In the meantime, I fry the minced meat in a non-stick pan, so I can save extra fat for frying, because in the mixed minced meat is usually enough fat included.
  3. I also add the onion and the garlic. Stir well again and again to make the minced meat crumble.
  4. Just before the meat is cooked, I add the tomato paste and roast it with something.
  5. Then deglaze with the red wine and boil to evaporate the alcohol and add the roast stock.
  6. Season with salt, pepper, paprika and a few drops of Worcestershire sauce. Tighten with some cornstarch.
  7. Simmer the whole thing over low heat for about 5-10 minutes.
  8. Put the noodle in a baking dish, sauce over it and the cheese (I have mixed in this case, grated gouda and mozzarella).
  9. Now for about 15-20 minutes in the pre-heated oven (at 180 °) and crispy baked.

As a side dish I recommend a green salad.
