- 1 onion
- 2 garlic gloves
- 4 tbsp. tomato sauce (tomato paste)
- 4 tbsp. oil

Instructions
- Cook pasta according to the instructions on the package (let the water boil on high heat, add rotini, and wait for the water to reboil; then reduce heat to low-medium and let the pasta cook until al dente condition; do not forget to stir occasionally). Save two tablespoons of water from cooking pasta.
- This time I did not have minced meat, so I had to do it myself. You feel free to buy anything you like. Add salt and pepper.
- Finely chop onion and garlic.
- Preheat the non-stick pan on medium heat. Add chopped garlic first and sauté for 30 seconds. Then add onion and sauté them together for 2-3 minutes.
- Stir in tomato sauce and sauté for an additional 2 minutes.
- Add minced meat, mix with the mixture, and cook it until it is done. Meat should turn grey.
- Add two tablespoons of water from the pasta, stir everything thoroughly, cover the pan with a lid, and let it simmer for 10 minutes on low heat.
- When the sauce with minced meat is ready, add cooked pasta.
- Mix all the ingredients and your pasta with minced meat is ready to be served.
