Instructions

Pasta Time

a) Boil a full kettle. Pour the boiled water into a large saucepan with 1/2 tsp salt on high heat.

b) Once hot, add the beef mince and fry until browned, 5-6 mins. Use a spoon to break it up as it cooks. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw mince.

Grate and Slice

5

a) Add the spinach to the pan a handful at a time until wilted and piping hot, 1-2 mins.
