Instructions

1

a) Boil a half-full kettle.

b) Pour the boiled water into a large saucepan with 0.25 tsp salt on high heat. Add the rice and cook for 10-12 mins.

2

a) Meanwhile, heat a drizzle of oil in a large saucepan on high heat.

b) Once hot, add the beef mince and mushrooms. Fry until the mince has browned, 5-6 mins. Use a spoon to break up the beef as it cooks. 

c) 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.

3

b) Stir in the sugar, tomato ketchup and water for the ragu (see pantry for all three amounts).

4

a) Bring the sauce to a boil, then reduce the heat and leave to gently simmer until the sauce has thickened 6-7 mins.

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

5

a) When the stew has finished simmering, stir in the butter (see pantry for amount) until melted.

b) Taste and season with salt and pepper if needed. Add a splash of water if it's a little too thick.

6

b) Spoon over the stew and scatter with the hard Italian style cheese. 

Enjoy!
