Core Ingredients- 400g Pasta (Spaghetti)
- 400g Beef Brisket (thinly sliced)
- 1.5 bottles Tomato Spaghetti Sauce (approx. 750g)
- 1/2 Broccoli
- 1/2 Onion
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, let’s start with cooking the pasta, the fundamental base for a delicious dish.
Step 2
Fill a large pot generously with water and add 1 tablespoon of salt. Bring it to a rolling boil. Once boiling, add 400g of pasta and cook for about 6 minutes, which is roughly 1 minute less than the package instructions. This ensures the pasta will be perfectly al dente when sautéed with the sauce later.
Step 3
Next, prepare the vegetables that will add flavor to your pasta. Peel and thinly slice half an onion.
Step 4
Cut the broccoli into florets and wash them thoroughly under running water. Make sure to drain them well after washing.
Step 5
Heat a wide pan over medium-low heat and add a generous amount of olive oil. Once shimmering, add 1 tablespoon of minced garlic. Sauté until fragrant, being careful not to burn the garlic. Add the sliced onion and broccoli florets, and stir-fry until the onion becomes translucent. Keep the heat low to prevent the garlic from burning.
Step 6
Lightly sprinkle some salt over the vegetables while they are cooking. This will enhance their natural flavors.
Step 7
Once the onion and broccoli have softened slightly, add the 400g of beef brisket and stir-fry it with the vegetables.
Step 8
If using frozen beef brisket, break it apart as it cooks. Add 1 tablespoon of cooking wine (like mirin or sake) to help tenderize the meat and eliminate any gamey odors.
Step 9
Add a pinch of salt to season the beef brisket as it cooks.
Step 10
Continue to cook over medium heat until the beef brisket is fully cooked through and has changed color. Stir occasionally to ensure even cooking and to prevent the meat from clumping.
Step 11
Once the beef brisket is completely cooked, pour in 1.5 bottles of your tomato spaghetti sauce. Stir and cook, allowing the sauce to heat through and meld with the other ingredients.
Step 12
When the sauce comes to a gentle simmer, add the pre-cooked pasta to the pan. Toss everything together quickly to coat the pasta evenly with the sauce.
Step 13
While tossing the pasta and sauce, add about one to two ladles of the pasta cooking water (pasta water). This starchy water helps to emulsify the sauce, making it creamier and ensuring it clings beautifully to the pasta. Continue to cook until the pasta is perfectly done.
Step 14
Once the pasta is perfectly cooked and coated with the sauce, your delicious Beef Brisket Tomato Pasta is ready! Plate the pasta attractively first,
Step 15
then generously spoon the sautéed beef brisket and sauce mixture over the top. This simple assembly creates a truly impressive Beef Brisket Pasta dish.
Step 16
This tomato pasta is perfect for those times when you need a quick and satisfying meal. Adding plenty of beef brisket makes it even more filling and enjoyable.
Step 17
My younger son even asked for some dinner rolls to dip into the sauce, which is always a good sign!
Step 18
My older son added some grated Parmesan cheese, making it look even more like a restaurant-quality tomato pasta, and finished his whole plate. This is a highly recommended dish for the whole family to enjoy together.
