Pappardelle With Spicy Meat Sauce

Pappardelle might not be a type of pasta you normally keep stocked in the kitchen, but this recipe could very well change that. The large, broad, flat noodles are like a wider fettuccine, and they act as a great base for meat, chunky sauces, ensuring you get a nice amount of both pasta and topping in each forkful. For this recipe, we cooked up a quick and easy meat sauce, made with ground beef, anchovy fillets, garlic, crushed red pepper, and canned crushed tomatoes. After browning the meat, you’ll stir in the seasonings, then simmer the sauce with a bit of dry white wine until it thickens.
