Directions

1. Preheat oven to 150°C.

2. Drizzle beef brisket with a little olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Heat a large cast iron pot until hot and sear beef on all sides until well browned. Remove from pot and set aside.

3. In the same pot, add a little more olive oil and fry onions, garlic, carrots and celery for a couple of minutes or until caramelised.

4. Add chilli, thyme, rosemary and stir through tomato paste. Cook for one minute.

5. Add the white wine and reduce until half.

6. Once wine has reduced, add the pasta sauces and beef stock and bring to a gentle simmer.

7. Return beef brisket to the pot and season lightly with salt and pepper.

8. Cover pot with the lid and place into the oven and cook for about 3 hours or until beef is very tender and can pull apart easily using two forks.

9. Once beef is cooked, remove from sauce and pull meat apart using two forks. Place the pulled beef back into the sauce and set aside.

10. Bring a pot of salted water to the boil and cook pasta according to packet instructions. Drain in a colander and drizzle lightly with a little olive oil.

11. To serve: Divide the pasta amongst the plates and top with the pulled beef brisket sauce. Add a good amount of grated parmesan cheese and freshly ground black pepper. Garnish with fresh basil leaves and serve.
