Instructions

Get Frying

1

Boil a half-full kettle. Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press).
Heat a frying pan on medium-high heat (no oil).
Once hot, fry the beef, 5-6 mins. Break up the mince as it cooks. IMPORTANT: Wash hands and utensils after handling raw meat. Cook so there's no pink in the middle.

Cook Couscous

2

Put the couscous into a bowl.
Pour in the boiling water (see pantry) and stir in half the chicken stock paste.
Cover tightly with cling film. Leave to the side, 10 mins.
Drain the fat from the mince. Season with salt and pepper.

Flavour Town

3

Add the garlic to the beef and cook for 1 min more. Stir in the passata, chipotle paste (add less if you'd prefer things milder), honey, butter (see pantry for both) and the remaining chicken stock paste.
Bring to the boil and simmer, 2-3 mins.
Add the spinach in handfuls, making sure it's piping hot, 1-2 mins.
Add a splash of water if it's a little thick.

Dinner's Ready!

4

Fluff the couscous up with a fork. Share between your bowls.
Spoon over the chipotle beef.
Add a dollop of soured cream.

Enjoy!
