As seen on TikTok and Instagram, this is our take on Anna's viral Turkish lamb pasta. The foundation is a handful of pantry staples - paprika, garlic and lemon which are combined for the tastiest midweek dinner. The mince cooks quickly while the pasta is boiling, so this really is dinner on the table in 20 minutes or less. We like to use farfalle pasta for their whimsy, but honestly you just need something that will catch the sauce - penne, rigatoni, fusilli are all great options too. Two sauces seems like a lot, but trust us when we say they're basic to make and are the perfect finishing touch to this dinner. Pro tip: be like Anna and keep a tub of garlic yoghurt in the fridge to be able to whip this up whenever you like.
