TIP! The pan we used had a top measurement of 26cm x 34cm. Any leftover mince is delicious as a jaffle filling or served on toasted sour dough.

Ingredients

500g lean beef mince

1 onion, finely chopped

3 teaspoons garlic paste

300g elbow pasta

1 large beef stock cube, crumbled

½ cup tomato sauce

¼ cup Worcestershire sauce

1/3 cup Gravox Traditional Gravy Powder

500g packet frozen peas, corn and capsicum

2 cups grated Tasty cheese

Method

Place mince, onion and garlic in a large bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Mix well.

Spoon mince mixture over the base of an oiled, large roasting pan (20-cup capacity). Top with pasta.

Dissolve stock cube in ½ cup boiling water in a large heatproof jug. Add sauces, gravy powder and 4 ½ cups cold water. Whisk to combine. Pour over pasta. Stir gently.

Cook, uncovered, in a hot oven (200C) for 30 minutes. Remove. Stir in vegetables and cheese. Return to hot oven.

Cook for a further 10 minutes, or until vegetables are soft and most of the liquid has been absorbed. Remove from oven. Stand for 5 minutes before serving.
