Cooking Steps
a) Preheat your oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7.
b) Remove the beef from the packaging. Place in an ovenproof dish along with the juices. Season with salt and pepper and cover loosely with foil.
c) When the oven is hot, roast on the middle shelf for 25-30 mins. IMPORTANT: Ensure the beef is piping hot throughout.
d) Boil a full kettle.
a) Trim the courgette and slice into 1cm thick rounds.
b) Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press).
c) Heat a drizzle of oil in a large frying pan on high heat.
d) When hot, add the courgette and cook until charred, 3-4 mins each side.
e) Once the courgette is cooked, season with salt and pepper, then transfer to a bowl.
a) Add a drizzle more oil to the (now empty) frying pan and pop on medium-high heat. Add the garlic and fry for 30 secs.
b) Stir in the passata, veg stock paste, vegan 'Nduja (see ingredients for amount, add less if you'd prefer things milder), sugar and water for the sauce (see pantry for both amounts).
c) Bring to the boil, then lower the heat and simmer the sauce until thickened slightly, 3-4 mins.
a) Meanwhile, pour the boiled water into a large saucepan with ½ tsp salt and bring back to the boil.
b) Add the girasoli and cook until tender, 3-5 mins.
c) Once cooked, carefully drain in a colander. Drizzle with oil and gently stir through to stop them sticking together.
a) Once your sauce has thickened, stir in the Italian style cheese.
b) Remove from the heat.
c) Once the beef is cooked, remove from the oven, reserve 1 tbsp of cooking juices per person, then discard the foil and any remaining cooking juices. Use two forks to shred the beef as finely as you can.
c) Mix the beef through the sauce. Taste and season with more salt, pepper and sugar to taste. Reheat if needed.
a) Gently stir the cooked pasta and courgette into the sauce and share between your serving bowls.
b) Top with the rocket and drizzle some olive oil over the leaves to finish.
