Recipe steps:

1. Prepare ingredients

   Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Peel then slice red onion, remove stems from mushrooms and slice. Chop dill and grate Pecorino Romano.

2. Cook pasta

   Add egg noodles to boiling water, and cook until al dente, 6–8 minutes. Drain noodles, reserving 1 cup pasta water.

3. Brown beef

   Meanwhile, heat 1 teaspoon oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Add beef, season with ½ teaspoon salt and pepper, and cook until browned, about 3 minutes. Transfer beef to a bowl, leaving any pan-juices behind.

4. Finish meat and mushrooms

   Add 1 tablespoon olive oil to skillet and onions. Season with ½ teaspoon salt; sauté until golden, 8–10 minutes. Add mushrooms and chili flake and sauté, 3 minutes. Add beef, cinnamon, cloves and ¼ cup pasta water; cook until reduced. Remove from heat and stir in dill.

5. Finish noodles

   In a large bowl, whisk yogurt, Pecorino, and ½ cup pasta water until smooth. Add pasta and toss until noodles are coated. Season with salt and pepper.

6. Serve

   Serve noodles topped with meat and mushroom mixture. Enjoy!
