How to Make One-Pan Harissa Bolognese Pasta

1. Preheat Oven and Prepare Meat Mixture

Preheat the oven to 475°F (245°C). In a roasting pan, combine ground beef, ground pork, harissa paste, Worcestershire sauce, ground cumin, ground coriander, olive oil, Parmesan cheese, Pecorino Romano cheese, salt, and black pepper.

2. Chop Vegetables and Combine with Meat

Using a food processor, finely chop the carrot, small onion, plum tomatoes, and garlic. Add the chopped vegetables to the seasoned meat in the roasting pan and stir to combine.

3. Roast Meat and Vegetable Mixture

Place the roasting pan in the preheated oven and bake for 25 minutes or until the surface is browned.

4. Reduce Temperature and Add Liquids

Lower the oven temperature to 375°F (190°C). Break the meat apart with a fork, then pour in the chicken stock and heavy cream. Stir to combine.

5. Add Pasta and Continue Baking

Add the uncooked pasta to the pan, making sure it's submerged in the liquid. Return the pan to the oven and bake for another 25 minutes, stirring halfway through.

6. Stir in Parsley and Add Remaining Cheese

Stir in the chopped fresh parsley and sprinkle the reserved Parmesan and Pecorino Romano cheese on top. Drizzle with the remaining olive oil.

7. Final Bake and Rest

Bake for a final 8 minutes until the cheese is golden and crispy. Let the pasta rest for 10 minutes before serving.
