Fusilli Pasta Ragu

Fusilli Pasta Ragu

Fusilli Pasta Ragu is a delightful Italian recipe, full of flavours and texture. The mixture of bell peppers, chillies, beef stock and beef mince creates a dish that will have you licking the bowl. Served as a main dish with an extra hit of finely chopped chilli if you like it hot. I use Monterey Jack cheese as it melts so well but others such as cheddar work just as well.
