Cooking Directions
Heat the oil in a heavy based frying pan. Sauté the onion and garlic until soft. Add the carrot and celery and cook a further 5 minutes.
Add the beef mince and marjoram. Brown thoroughly. Stir in the tomatoes, chicken stock and tomato paste. Reduce heat and simmer for 20-30 minutes until thick.
Simmer pasta for 5-6 minutes. Drain. Toss some of the mince ragu through the pasta and the remainder on top.
This ragu can be used for lasagne, Moussaka, cannelloni filling or on top a baked potato.
