• 總時間: 8 minutes

食材

For the pasta:

300 g linguine (or spaghetti)

2 tbsp butter

3–4 garlic cloves, minced

½ tsp chili flakes (optional)

Salt, to taste

For the meat sauce:

200 g ground beef

150 g Italian sausage (mild or spicy), casings removed

1 tbsp olive oil

1 small onion, finely chopped

½ cup tomato sauce or crushed tomatoes

1 tsp Italian seasoning (or oregano + basil mix)

Salt & black pepper, to taste

For the cheesy finish:

½ cup grated Parmesan

½ cup shredded mozzarella (or provolone for extra melt)

Fresh parsley or basil, chopped (for garnish)

步驟

Cook the pasta:

Boil linguine in salted water until al dente. Reserve ½ cup of the pasta water, then drain.

Cook the meat:

Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.

Add ground beef and sausage; cook until browned and crumbly.

Add onion and cook 2–3 minutes until soft.

Season with salt, pepper, and Italian herbs.

Stir in tomato sauce and simmer for 5 minutes to thicken slightly.

Make the garlic butter base:

In a large pan, melt butter over medium heat.

Add minced garlic and chili flakes; cook for 30 seconds until fragrant.

Add the drained pasta directly into the pan and toss to coat.

Combine everything:

Add the cooked meat mixture to the pasta.

Sprinkle in Parmesan and mozzarella, tossing until the cheese melts and clings to the noodles.

If it’s too thick, splash in a bit of the reserved pasta water for a silky finish.

Serve:

Garnish with fresh parsley or basil and extra Parmesan on top.

Serve hot with garlic bread or a crisp green salad on the side 🥗✨
