INSTRUCTIONS

1
In a large pot, heat the oil and sauté the meat over high heat until it is seared (about 5–8 minutes). Transfer the meat to a bowl, return the pot to the stove, and sauté the onion over medium heat for 7–8 minutes (or until translucent). Then add the garlic and taco seasoning, sauté for another 1–2 minutes, and then pour in the tomatoes. Fill the empty cans with water and add it to the pot. Repeat this twice (so 4 cans of water).
2
Then add the sautéed meat to the pot and cook for 8–10 minutes over medium heat. Next, add the pasta and cook for 5–8 minutes (or according to the package instructions). Once the pasta is cooked, stir in the cheddar and wait for it to melt (1–2 minutes). Then add the cooking cream to smoothen and cook through (2–3 minutes).
3
Serve the finished taco pasta topped with a spoonful of sour cream and garnished with spring onions.
