Steps

30 minutes

1

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the penne and cook for 8 minutes, or until al dente.
2

In a large saucepan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until golden brown.
3

Add the pork mince to the pan and cook until browned and fully cooked through, breaking it apart with a spatula. Stir in the chopped tomatoes and a splash of reserved pasta water.
4

Stir in the cream, basil, salt, and pepper. Let the sauce simmer for another 1–2 minutes to blend the flavors.
5

Add the cooked penne to the sauce and mix well. Cook together for 3–4 minutes to allow the pasta to absorb the flavors.
6

Plate the pasta and top generously with grated Parmesan cheese.
