a) Bring a large saucepan of water to the boil with 1/2 tsp salt.
b) When boiling, add the penne to the water and bring back to the boil. Cook until tender, 12 mins.

c) When the mince has browned, drain and discard any excess fat. Season with salt and pepper. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw mince. It's cooked when no longer pink in the middle.
