Method
- Heat 1 tbsp oil in a large saucepan, add the pork, season with salt and pepper, then fry until browned. Put in a bowl. Add the rest of the oil to the juices in the pan and fry the onion and carrots for 10-15 minutes until the carrots are tender and the onion is translucent. Add the garlic and fry for another minute.
- Return the mince to the pan with any juices, stir well, then pour in the milk and simmer for 5-6 minutes until the liquid is well reduced.
- Pour in the stock, chopped tomatoes and 100ml sherry, then simmer gently for 30-35 minutes until the sauce has thickened. Pour in the remaining 25ml sherry, mix well, then season well with salt and pepper and remove the pan from the heat.
- Cook the pasta in boiling salted water according to the pack instructions. Drain the pasta, then add it to the pan with the sauce, turning well to coat. Serve with a generous scattering of parmesan, sprinkled with basil leaves.
