Cooking Instructions and Tips

Get Prepped
1

a) Bring a large saucepan of water to the boil with 1/2 tsp salt for the pappardelle.
b) Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press).

Fry the Sausage Meat
2

a) Heat a drizzle of oil in a large frying pan on medium-high heat.
b) Add the sausage meat to the pan and cook until it starts to brown, 4-5 mins. Use a spoon to break it up as it cooks, then drain and discard any excess fat. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw meat.

Cook the Pasta
3

a) Meanwhile, add the pappardelle to your pan of boiling water and bring back to the boil.
b) Cook until tender, 10 mins.

Garlic Time
4

a) While the pasta cooks, add the garlic and the chilli flakes to the pan with the sausage meat. TIP: Add less chilli if you don't like too much heat. IMPORTANT: The mince is cooked when no longer pink in the middle.

Simmer the Sauce
5

a) Add the chopped tomatoes, chicken stock paste, sugar (see ingredients for amount) and tomato puree to the pan.
b) Stir together and simmer until slightly thickened, 5-6 mins.
c) Add the spinach to the pan a handful at a time until wilted and piping hot, 1-2 mins.

Finish and Serve
6

a) Once cooked, drain the pappardelle in a colander.
b) Add the cooked pasta to the sauce and stir in half the hard Italian style cheese. Taste and season with salt and pepper if needed.
c) Serve the spicy pork ragu in bowls. Sprinkle over the remaining cheese to finish. Enjoy!
