Cooking Steps
a) Bring a large saucepan of water to the boil with 0.5 tsp salt.
b) When boiling, add the rigatoni to the water and bring back to the boil. Cook until tender, 12 mins.
c) Once cooked, drain in a colander and pop back in the pan. Drizzle with oil and stir through to stop it sticking together.
a) Meanwhile, peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press).
b) Heat a large frying pan on medium-high heat (no oil).
a) Once hot, add the lamb mince to the pan and fry until browned, 5-6 mins. Use spoon to break it up as it cooks, then drain and discard any excess fat.
b) Season with salt and pepper. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw mince. The mince is cooked when no longer pink in the middle.
c) Add the sliced mushrooms and stir-fry until golden, 3-4 mins.
a) Stir the garlic, tomato puree and dried rosemary into the pan. Cook, stirring, for 1-2 mins.
b) Add the creme fraiche, chicken stock paste and water for the sauce (see pantry for amount).
c) Bring to the boil, then lower the heat and simmer until slightly thickened, 2-3 mins.
a) Once the sauce has thickened, stir in the grated hard Italian style cheese. Add a splash of water if you feel it needs it.
b) Taste and add salt and pepper if needed.
a) Add the cooked rigatoni to the sauce and stir to combine, then spoon the lamb rigatoni into your bowls.
Enjoy!

Review summary
Updated on Aug 2026- Flavour: The rosemary and lamb combination is widely enjoyed, delivering a rich, comforting flavour; some find the lamb taste strong or the dish a little rich, and a few suggest adding chilli flakes or extra garlic to boost depth.
- Ease of prep: Most find this genuinely quick and straightforward to pull together on a weeknight, with several noting it comes together in around 20 minutes.
- Suggestions: Drain the lamb mince thoroughly to reduce greasiness; if the sauce feels too thin, use less water than stated or simmer a little longer to help it thicken. Some also suggest reducing the pasta slightly and adding greens such as spinach or peas for extra colour and veg.
- Next-day meals: Leftovers reheat well the following day, and some find the sauce generous enough to stretch to an extra portion.
