Ingredients:

From your kitchen:

Oil (cooking, olive or coconut)
Salt & Pepper
Water
Sugar/Sweetener/Honey
Paper Towel
Butter (optional)

Serves 1

PASTA
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil for the pasta. Cook the pasta until al dente, 10-12 minutes. Drain and toss through a drizzle of olive oil.
BROWN THE LAMB
Place a deep pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. Pat the lamb chunks dry with paper towel. When hot, sear the lamb until browned, 2-3 minutes (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pan, season, and rest for 1-2 minutes. Roughly chop and set aside.
READY TO RAGÙ
Boil the kettle. Return the pan with the oil from the lamb and an extra drizzle of oil (if necessary) to medium-high heat. When hot, fry the diced Onion until golden, 4-5 minutes (shifting occasionally). Add the grated garlic, the NOMU rub, and the tomato paste. Fry until fragrant, 1-2 minutes (shifting constantly). Add the wine and simmer until almost evaporated, 1-2 minutes.
SIMMERING AWAY
Add the cooked chopped tomato, 250ml of boiling water, and seasoning to the pan. Simmer until slightly reduced, 10-15 minutes. Add an extra splash of water if the sauce reduces too quickly. In the final 4-5 minutes, add the browned lamb.
FINISH UP
Add the sour cream, ½ the grated cheese, a sweetener (to taste), a knob of butter (optional), and seasoning to the ragù sauce. Simmer until heated through, 1-2 minutes. Add ½ the sauce to the pot of drained pasta and toss until fully coated.
TOO GOOD!
Pile up the saucy pasta. Smother in the remaining lamb ragû sauce. Sprinkle over the remaining grated cheese and the picked oregano. Finish with a final grind of black pepper. Delish, Chef!
