Total Time20 minutes
Course: Main Course
Cuisine: Italian
Servings: 4

Ingredients

  • 250 gr spaghetti
  • 50 gr of Spanish chorizo
  • 300 gr of Ground beef
  • 1 garlic clove minced
  • 200 gr of brown mushrooms sliced
  • 5-8 black olives (without seed)
  • 1 can peeled tomatoes (250 gr)
  • 1 tsp of sugar
  • parsley
  • black pepper
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp italian seasoning
  • salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Prepare the spaghetti according to the instructions of the package.
  • In a hot pan pour the olive oil and the garlic and wait until the garlic is slightly golden.
  • Add the spanish chorizo cut into small pieces and stir until the sausage is brown and release the “oil”. This is where all the sausage flavour is.
  • Add the mushrooms and the black olives. Wait until they are tender and then incorporate the ground beef, the italian seaoning, and a pinch of salt and pepper.
  • When the meat is fully cooked, add the canned tomatoes (smashed ) and the sugar. The sweet will counteract the acidity of the tomato. Stir until the sauce is thick (about 5 minutes) and serve with the pasta.
