Instructions

Working time approx. 30 minutes; Cooking/baking time approx. 30 minutes; Total time approx. 1 hour

Preheat the oven to 190°C. Cook the penne in salted water until al dente and drain. Then transfer to a baking dish. Meanwhile, finely chop the feta, basil, and garlic. Place the passata in a bowl and add the cream, feta, basil, and garlic. Mix and season with salt, pepper, and oregano. Chop the onion and sauté in a pan with a little oil, then add the ground beef. Fry until crumbly and brown, then season with salt and pepper. Add the ground beef to the baking dish with the pasta, pour the sauce over it, and mix everything together so that the tomato and ground beef sauce is evenly distributed throughout the penne. Then sprinkle the grated cheese over the pasta and scatter teaspoon-sized dollops of crème fraîche over the casserole. Bake in the middle of the oven for about 25-30 minutes.
