Equipment

  • Skillet

Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound spaghetti pasta
  • 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 can 15 ounces tomato puree
  • 4-5 sausages sliced on the diagonal
  • 1 can 8 ounces tomato paste
  • 1 teaspoon honey or maple syrup
  • 3 cloves garlic finely minced
  • ½ teaspoon sea salt
  • 1 small yellow onion finely chopped
  • ½ cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
  • 1 pound ground chuck beef
  • 1 cup sweet banana ketchup
  • 1 cup beef stock
  • ¼ teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper
  • Optional: Fresh basil or cilantro for garnish

Instructions
 

  • Let’s transform those ingredients into a comforting bowl of Jollibee pasta. Here’s how to do it:

Step 1: Cook the Pasta

  • Start by boiling a large pot of salted water. Add the spaghetti and cook according to the package instructions. Drain and set aside when done.

Step 2: Sauté the Aromatics

  • In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the finely chopped onions and minced garlic. Sauté until fragrant and translucent, about 3-4 minutes. The aroma? It’ll make you want to dive in early!

Step 3: Brown the Meat

  • Add the ground beef to the skillet. Break it up with a spatula and cook until browned. Drain excess fat if needed. This step will give your dish that savory essence.

Step 4: Add Sausage

  • Once the beef is browned, add the sliced sausages. Let them brown for another 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally. They add a delightful bite and flavor.

Step 5: Mix in the Sauces

  • Stir in the tomato puree and tomato paste. Follow with banana ketchup. Make sure to mix thoroughly, allowing all flavors to meld together.

Step 6: Season It Up

  • Pour in the beef stock and mix it well. Season with sea salt, black pepper, and the teaspoon of honey or maple syrup. Bring this mixture to a gentle simmer and let it bubble away for about 10 minutes.

Step 7: Combine Pasta and Sauce

  • Once your sauce has thickened slightly, add the cooked spaghetti to the skillet. Toss to coat the noodles well. The goal is to let every strand soak in that delicious sauce.

Step 8: Serve and Garnish

  • Serve the Jollibee pasta in bowls, topped with shredded cheddar cheese. For an extra touch, sprinkle with fresh basil or cilantro. It’s all about the finishing touches!

Notes

Here are some handy tips to ensure your pasta turns out perfect:
  • Salt the Pasta Water: Always season your boiling water. It improves flavor from the very beginning.
  • Don’t Overcook the Noodles: Aim for al dente! The pasta should still have a slight bite.
  • Make It Ahead: This pasta tastes even better the next day. It’s a great make-ahead option for gatherings.
  • Experiment with Proteins: Use chicken or even plant-based proteins if you prefer. The flavors will adapt wonderfully.
  • Add Veggies: Toss in some bell peppers or zucchini for added nutrition and color.
