Instructions

Get Started
1

Heat a drizzle of oil in a large, wide-bottomed saucepan on medium-high heat. 

Once hot, add the pork mince and fry until browned, 4-5 mins. Use a spoon to break it up as it cooks. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw mince.

When the mince has browned, drain and discard any excess fat. Season with salt and pepper.

Flavour Time
2

Meanwhile, peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press)

Add the garlic and tomato puree to the pan. Stir-fry until fragrant, 1 min. 

Stir through the mixed herbs, red wine stock paste, Worcester sauce and the sugar and water for the sauce (see pantry for both amounts). 

Simmer the Ragu
3

Bring the ragu to the boil, cover the pan with a lid, then lower to a simmer.

Cook until thickened, 10-12 mins. IMPORTANT: The mince is cooked when no longer pink in the middle.

Cook the Pasta
4

Meanwhile, bring a large saucepan of water to the boil with 1/2 tsp salt for the spaghetti.

When boiling, add the spaghetti to the water and bring back to the boil. Cook until tender, 8 mins. Once cooked, drain in a colander and pop back in the pan.

Drizzle with oil and stir through to stop it sticking together.

All Together Now
5

When everything's ready, stir the butter (see pantry for amount), olives and cooked pasta through the ragu.

Taste and season with salt and pepper if needed. Add a splash of water if you need to loosen the sauce.

Serve Up
6

Share the ragu and pasta between your serving bowls.

Crumble over the Greek style salad cheese, top with a handful of rocket and a drizzle of oil over the leaves to finish.

Enjoy!
