Steps
- Step 1
Cook the spaghetti as per the packet instructions. Once cooked, drain, reserving 1 cup of the pasta cooking water.
- Step 2
While the pasta is cooking, heat a large frying pan over a medium-high heat.
- Step 3
Add the minced beef to the pan (note: if your minced beef is less than 10% fat, add a tablespoon of oil to the pan too, otherwise the beef will be dry) and sprinkle over the Cajun spice and black pepper.
- Step 4
Fry for 5-6 minutes, stirring often and breaking up any large pieces of mince as you go, until browned.
- Step 5
Sprinkle over the crumbled stock cube and stir together.
- Step 6
Add the garlic, onion, red and yellow pepper, and the sliced jalapenos.
- Step 7
Stir together and cook for 5 minutes, stirring often, until the onion softens slightly.
- Step 8
Add in the spring onions, hot sauce, Worcestershire sauce, cider vinegar, cream, and parmesan cheese.
- Step 9
Stir together and bring to a gentle simmer.
- Step 10
By now the spaghetti should be ready. Add the drained spaghetti to the pan with the minced beef and stir together.
- Step 11
Add in splashes of the pasta cooking water if you would like to loosen the sauce a little.
- Step 12
Divide the pasta between bowls and top with sliced jalapeno before serving.
