# Instructions:

Now, pour in your cream and let everything bubble for a few minutes so it thickens up. Add in extra salt and pepper if you want, then swish everything together with the drained pasta. Throw on Parmesan cheese at the end for an extra tasty bite.

Next, toss in the tomato paste, diced tomatoes with all their juice, a little Dijon, and the Italian spices. Let the pan simmer for around five minutes so you get a thick, blended sauce.

After the onions are ready, add in your ground beef and garlic. Crush up the meat as it fries, stirring often. Brown it for about eight minutes. If too much fat gathers, just scoop some out and toss it.

While your pasta cooks, put olive oil in a big pan or heavy pot and heat it over medium-high. Add the onions and tumble them around until they're soft and clear, about four minutes.

Bring a big pot of salted water to a fast boil and throw in your pasta. Boil until it's bouncy and cooked through—just check your box for the right timing.
