Boil the pasta with salty water following the instructions on the package, drain. Toss the pasta, olive oil and salt in a pot.

Meanwhile saute the onion with olive oil for about 2-3 minutes over medium heat. Add the ground beef, salt and pepper and cook on medium-low heat until all the water evaporates while stirring. Then add the tomato, cook over medium-low heat until the tomatoes are done while stirring.

Place pasta on a serving dish. Pour the cooked ground beef&tomato mixture all over it. Mix all the Yogurt Sauce ingredients and pour all over the ground beef. Melt the butter in a small pan and add in the peppers. When it starts bubbling, pour over the dish.

After draining the pasta do you run cold water over it?

Hi,
Rinsing the pasta washes the starch off, so the sauce will not be able to stick to the pasta. I don't rinse the pasta, I just strain:)
