Cooking Instructions and Tips

Get Started
1

Preheat your oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7.

Meanwhile, heat a drizzle of oil in a large, wide-bottomed ovenproof pan on medium-high heat. TIP: If you don't have an ovenproof pan, use a normal pan and transfer to an ovenproof dish before baking.

Brown the Beef Mince
2

Once the oil is hot, add the beef mince. Fry until the mince has 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
3

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

Add the garlic and mixed herbs to the pan and fry for 30 secs. 

Stir through the passata, red wine stock paste, Worcester sauce and the sugar and water for the sauce (see pantry for both amounts). Season with salt and pepper.

Bake the Ragu
4

Bring the sauce up to the boil, then pop a lid on the pan (or cover with foil) and bake on the middle shelf of your oven until the meat is tender and the sauce has thickened, 20-25 mins. IMPORTANT: The mince is cooked when no longer pink in the middle. 

Cook the Pasta
5

When the mince has 15 mins of cooking time left, 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.

Serve Up
6

When everything's ready, remove the ragu from the oven and stir through the butter (see pantry for amount), olives and pasta. TIP: Add a splash of water if you need to loosen the sauce.

Divide the pasta between your serving bowls.

Crumble over the Greek style salad cheese to finish.

Enjoy!
