  1. PREP FOR THE PASTA & TOAST THE SEEDS

    Place a pot of salted water for the pasta over a high heat and leave to come to the boil for step 3. Place the sunflower seeds in a pan over a medium heat. Toast for 2-4 minutes until lightly browned, shifting occasionally. Remove from the pan on completion and set aside to cool.

  2. RAGÙ TO WOO YOU!

    Return the pan to a medium heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, sauté the diced onion for 4-5 minutes until soft and translucent. Add in the mince and work quickly to break it up as it starts to cook. Allow to caramelise for 3-4 minutes until browned, stirring occasionally. Reduce the heat to low and stir through the Peri-Peri Rub, the cooked chopped tomatoes, and the red wine. Simmer for 12-15 minutes until reduced and thick, stirring occasionally to prevent it from catching. If too thick, loosen with a little of the pasta water.

  3. BUBBLING LINGUINE

    Once the water is boiling, add a drizzle of oil and cook the pasta for 9-11 minutes until al dente. Drain on completion and return to the pot. Toss through some oil to prevent sticking and set aside.

  4. WHILE YOUR RAGÙ & PASTA ARE ON THE GO…

    Mix three-quarters of the chopped parsley with the ricotta and season. Toss the rinsed green leaves with the balsamic vinegar, a drizzle of olive oil, and some seasoning. Set both aside for serving.

  5. ALMOST THERE

    Once the ragù has thickened, stir through the chopped olives and season to taste with salt, pepper, and a sweetener of choice (optional). Remove from the heat and add half to the pot of pasta, reserving the rest for plating. Gently toss until coated.

  6. TIME TO DINE!

    Pile up the luxurious beef linguine and spoon over the remaining ragù. Top with dollops of herbed ricotta and scatter over the remaining parsley. Serve the dressed leaves on the side with sprinklings of toasted sunflower seeds. Buon appetito, maestro!
