or rice noodle pot

Cook the pasta until al dente and drain in a colander. Drain well. Meanwhile, finely chop the onion and garlic clove. Sauté with the minced meat until finely crumbled. Add the passata and canned tomatoes and bring back to a boil. Season with Italian herbs, salt, and pepper. Add ketchup, if desired. This gives the dish a slight sweetness and reduces the acidity of the tomatoes. Transfer the pasta to a bowl, pour the hot sauce over it, and add the cheese. Mix everything together well. Serve with a fresh, crisp salad.
