PASTA WITH GORGONZOLA SAUCE AND BALSAMIC BEEF TENDERLOIN RECIPE

Steps:

• Toss the filet mignon medallions with the balsamic vinegar, brown sugar, salt, and pepper. Let rest in the refrigerator for 20 minutes. Meanwhile, prepare a pot of water to boil and cook pasta according to package directions. Drain and set aside. In a saute pan, heat the oil over medium heat. Add the beef. Cook without turning for 2-3 minutes, or until browned. Turn and repeat. Remove from heat and cover to keep warm. (If you would like the meat more well done, cook for additional time) Combine the butter through white wine in a saucepan. Bring to a slow simmer and stir in the Parmesan and Gorgonzola. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Let simmer for 2 minutes, stirring to ensure the cheese has dispersed evenly. Toss the pasta with the sauce and filet mignon medallions. Garnish with additional Gorgonzola. Note: just before serving, I threw the asparagus into the pan I cooked the beef in. Sauteed it for a minute, poured a few glugs of white wine, and put the lid on it. After steaming it for a minute or two I seasoned with salt and pepper to taste. Serve it drizzled with some of the pan drippings you cooked it in.

QUICK PASTA WITH GROUND BEEF, PINEAPPLE, AND CURRY-CREAM SAUCE

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add penne and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 11 minutes. Drain.
• Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and cook ground beef until browned and crumbly, 5 to 10 minutes. Add pineapple and leek and cook over high heat for 5 minutes. Pour in a few tablespoons of the pineapple juice. Season with curry, chicken granules, salt, and pepper.
• Stir in ketchup and tomato paste and mix well. Cover skillet and simmer sauce over low heat for 5 to 8 minutes. Add more pineapple juice if sauce appears dry. Pour in cream and mix with drained penne.

EGGPLANT AND BEEF PASTA SAUCE

Steps:

• Cut Eggplant into pieces and soak in salted water for about 20 minutes. Take out and dry.
• Slowly melt butter and olive oil together in a large pan, make sure not Add the finely chopped chili and garlic and simmer on a low heat for a few minutes.
• Add the chopped onion - cook on low for a few minutes.
• Add the mushrooms, make sure there is enough oil.
• Add the eggplant and leave to cook until the eggplant is soft.
• In the meantime cook the beef mince in a separate pan, if you want a stronger garlic flavour, add some crushed garlic to this as well.
• Add one tin of tomatoes to the Beef Mince, and one to the Eggplant, let it cook for a few minutes, then put a splash of red wine in the Eggplant. (This doesn't really matter how you want to do it, because the next step is putting the mince in the eggplant pan anyway!).
• Add the beef mince to the other pan.
• Let the sauce simmer for about 10 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened.
• Add some dry oregano to the sauce, salt, pepper and some Tabasco sauce. Only add as much Tabasco sauce as you think you can handle, but you should put in some because it does make a difference to the sauce.
• If the sauce is looking a bit watery, add some more butter at different stages in the cooking process.
• Serve over pasta (Try it over Gnocchi!) and put some grated Parmesan cheese on top. Season to your taste.
