Very decent mid-week meal - and fast!
I used Italian Sausages in place of ground meat (Costco sweet italian pork sausages are really good), browned the meat, added onions, a quick saute, then vermouth. To this, you add some garlic, fennel seeds, water, and bring it to a boil. Then you add uncooked pasta and a can of crushed tomatoes (no stirring), seal up the pressure cooker, and bring to high pressure. Five minutes later your are releasing steam, stirring, waiting a few minutes, and serve!
Fewer dishes and perhaps better than pasta with prego, but not amazing. However, if you consider its only one dish, and that start to finish it takes less than half an hour, that is good.
DH loved it, but the pasta was not uniformly perfectly cooked. The instructions say to let it sit for 3 - 5 minutes. If I make this again, I'll let it sit for more like 8 to 10 minutes.
This is the basic recipe in this cookbook - it is followed by several good alternatives.
