Conchiglioni Pasta With Mushroom Ragu

Conchiglioni Pasta With Mushroom Ragu


1. Cook the pasta shells in boiling salted water for 15 mins or according to packet instructions. Drain, then tip into an ovenproof dish.

2. Meanwhile, heat half the oil in a large frying pan, add the mushrooms and sauté over high heat for 6-8 mins, stirring occasionally until nicely browned. Transfer to a plate.

3. Add the remaining oil to the pan, add the beef, onion and garlic and cook over a high heat for 5 mins until browned. Add the red wine, tomato paste, oregano and plenty of seasoning then bring to the boil, stirring well. Simmer for 4 mins or until reduced. Add the half and half and mushrooms and simmer for a further 5 mins until nicely reduced.

4. Spoon the beef over the pasta shells, then stir well so that it fills the pasta. Scatter over the cheeses and pop under a hot broiler. Cook for 3 mins or until the top is golden brown. Serve straight away.
