On busy nights one-pan wonders bring big flavours to the dinner table (with less mess!)
1 tbsp olive oil
1 medium onion, chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
450 g ground lamb
3 tbsp tomato paste

250 g gemelli or other small pasta, (3 1/2 cups)
HEAT oil in a large pot over medium. Add onion and garlic and cook until softened, 3 min. Increase heat to high and add lamb. Cook, breaking up with a wooden spoon, until browned, 5 to 7 min.
STIR in tomato paste, salt, pepper flakes and rosemary and cook 2 min. Stir in tomatoes and broth, then bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer 15 min.
ADD pasta and return to a boil. Simmer, uncovered, stirring occasionally, until pasta is al dente, about 10 min.
