Recipe By Sara Danesin
Lumaconi with Sara's Ragout.
Ingredients:
1 celery stick,
1 shallot,
1 carrot,
Sprig of thyme, 1 bay leaf, a generous pinch of fennel seeds, 4 juniper berries,
tin of chopped tomatoes,
200 gr of pork mince,
200 gr of beef mince,
50 gr of cubed smoked pancetta,
50 gr parmigiano,
50 ml of red wine,
50 ml of extra virgin olive oil,
1 glass of water with 4 tsp concentrated tomato paste,
400 gr of Garofalo Lumaconi.
Method:
Place carrot, celery and shallot and fine dice with a food processor.
In a frying pan place the oil and pancetta and let it brown gently; add the diced vegetables and sweat for 3/4 minutes;
Add the fennel seeds, thyme, bay leaves and juniper berries and both meats.
Mix well with the vegetables and add the wine. Once this has evaporated, add the tinned tomatoes and the glass of water with the tomato paste, lower the heat, cover the pan with a lid, and allow to gently simmer for 1.5 h minimum.
If the mix appears too dense, add a small quantity of warm water but remember that both tomatoes and the meats both typically release water.
This recipe can be achieved either with a slow cooker or, if you are lucky enough to have an AGA, using the bottom oven.

Chunky chaps
Great big hunks of pasta, brilliant for stuffing but also good for serving just with sauce, which they guzzle up a treat. Yum.
Perfect Pasta
For when normal penne isn't enough, this pasta is a go to! Cooks quite quickly and tastes great
stuffed shells!
Excellent for stuffed shells. Boil for 7 mins, stuff and bake for 25 covered in sauce & cheese! Come out perfect every time.

Nice large shells for stuffing spinach and ricotta. Precooked sl dente before stuffed. Looked great for our guests

I regularly cook these stuffed with ricotta and parsley, covered in a tomato sauce and baked in the oven - lovely
