Instructions

Brown the Mince
1

a) Bring a large saucepan of water to the boil with 1/2 tsp salt for the pasta.
b) Heat a drizzle of oil in a large frying pan on medium-high heat.
c) When the oil is hot, add the beef mince and cook until browned, 5-6 mins. Use a spoon to break it up as it cooks. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw mince. The mince is cooked when no longer pink in the middle.

Cook the Pasta
2

a) Meanwhile, add the penne to your pan of boiling water and bring back to the boil.
b) Cook until tender, 12 mins.

Mushroom Time
3

a) Once the beef is browned, drain and discard any excess fat.
b) Stir in the Italian style herbs and mushrooms and cook for another 2 mins.

Simmer the Ragu
4

a) Stir in the Worcester sauce and simmer until evaporated, 30 secs.
b) Stir in the passata, sun-dried tomato paste, sugar for the sauce (see ingredients for amount) and red wine jus paste.
c) Bring to the boil, then reduce the heat and simmer until thickened, 4-5 mins, stirring occasionally.

Add the Spinach
5

a) Stir the spinach through the sauce a handful at a time until wilted and piping hot, 1-2 mins.
b) When the pasta is cooked, drain in a colander, then add to the sauce.
c) Stir through three quarters of the cheese until combined. TIP: Add a splash of water if your sauce needs loosening.

Finish and Serve
6

a) Season the penne ragu to taste with salt and pepper, then serve in bowls.
b) Sprinkle with the remaining cheese.
Enjoy!
