Linguine with Spiced Beef and Feta

This savory pasta dish was inspired by kawarma, the spicy ground beef topping spooned over hummus in Israel. We decided it would work equally well over noodles with just a few adjustments. The result is a ground beef sauce seasoned with fragrant spices and generous amounts of onion and garlic, all lightened with a good dose of mint at the end. Rather than sprinkle the feta as a garnish, we toss the just-cooked noodles with most of the cheese so it melts and coats the strands. If you like, you could serve the sauce with warmed flatbread instead of on noodles.
