Slow Cooked Beef Ragu with Papperdelle & Ricotta
This slow cooker ragu is every bit as luscious and comforting as you would expect it to be. Super quick to organise in the morning at the start of your day - It’s packed with juicy tomato and garlic flavour and shredded beef that swims in a little tomato gravy, that is on point for some fresh pasta from our friends at iPastai. Proper comfort food this one! #youplateit. Important Note: This is a 'slow cook' recipe, so it must be started in the morning. You can also cook in a low oven, around 120°C, in an oven tray covered with foil for 8 hrs.
