Ingredients

  • 500 g pappardelle pasta 

  • 3-4 cups leftover lamb shoulder (the amount really depends on how much you have leftover), shredded 

  • 1 onion, finely chopped 

  • 2 garlic cloves, minced

  • ¼ cup cream 

  • Freshly grated parmesan 

  • Finely chopped parsley to serve 

Preparation

  1. Cook the pasta per packet instructions. Meanwhile, heat a large pan over medium heat and add a drizzle of olive oil. Throw in the onion and cook for a few minutes until soft and slightly brown. Now add the garlic and lamb and fry until the lamb becomes a little crispy. 

  2. Pour in the red wine and let this cookout for a few minutes or until it’s reduced by half. Add the pasta sauce and cream and give it all a good stir. Bring it up to a simmer, then add the pappardelle pasta. Turn off the heat and give it a good toss. Making sure every pasta strand is coated in this beautiful ragu. 

  3. Serve it in individual bowls, or as is in the middle of the table. Top with a generous grating of parmesan and fresh parsley. Enjoy!
