With the piquant peppery taste of native Horopito and grass-fed NZ Beef, this slow-cooked Ragu is best accompanied by any type of pasta, like pappardelle, or fettuccine. Heat and serve with plenty of freshly grated Parmesan cheese and fresh Italian Parsley leaves.
Alternatively, serve with fresh steamed broccolini, wilted spinach, creamy mashed potato, or even spooned on a hot baked potato with a dollop of sour cream to finish.

Nice sauce – just enough for two if the meal is bulked out with pasta and a few vegetables. It is nice to have a sauce that was not too salty.
+ PROS: Easy to use and quick to prepare. Well cooked meat.
- CONS:Small quantity - enough for a sauce for 2 people over pasta, but not enough to use as the hero of the meal.

We didn’t really enjoy this. It was quite bland and didn’t have much meat.
+ PROS: Quick and easy to prepare.
- CONS:Bland and is more of a soup.

The size is great – I put it on top of rice, with coriander on top, however, I would have liked for it to have had a little more flavor/kick.

Easy and fast to prepare
Made with wholesome ingredients
Great flavours, but the texture wasn’t quite right for me

This was delicious, I enjoyed the flavour and the freshness of the beef.
+ PROS: The flavour is delicious!! Super easy to heat and serve. It has ‘real’ meat and doesn’t taste like it came from a packet. Would recommend serving on rice or with bread, sour cream etc.
- CONS:I felt it was not a family meal - only suitable for one person. Not family size.
This was super tasty – I ended up licking the plate. Easy meal to make when working from home (way better than ham and salad sammies).
+ PROS: Great flavour with hints of the herbs coming through.
Packet looked small but perfect size for one (I'm a decent eater). Could stretch mixed with pasta instead of toast.
Easy to heat and eat.
- CONS:Would need more packets for family.

Whole family liked this. We spooned it onto toasted Ciabatta and topped with Parmesan Cheese.
Nice Flavour, but packet size is quite small.

Loved the flavour. Was perfect as a baked potato filling with a dollop of sour cream
Gaynor Anderson – Auckland –
Good flavour and texture, ideal as a pasta topper. Would suit convenience eats when away or those in an RV
