Instructions

Cook the Pasta
1
  • Boil a large pot of salted water for the rigatoni.
  • When boiling, add the rigatoni to the water and bring back to the boil.
  • Cook until softened, 12 mins.
  • Once cooked, drain in a colander and pop back in the pot, off the heat.
  • Drizzle with oil and stir through to prevent sticking.

TIP: If you’re in a hurry you can boil the water in your kettle.

Fry the Pork
2
  • Meanwhile, halve, peel and thinly slice the onion.
  • Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press). 
  • Place a large pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil.
  • Once the pan is hot, add the pork mince and onion. Fry until pork is browned, 5-6 mins. IMPORTANT: Wash hands and equipment after handling raw mince. Pork is cooked when no longer pink in the middle.
  • Use a spoon to break up the mince as it cooks. Season with salt and pepper.
Simmer the Sauce
3
  • Stir in the garlic and sprinkle over half the Italian herbs (double for 4p).
  • Cook, stirring, until fragrant, 1 min more.
  • Add the Worcester sauce, chopped tomatoes and ½ tsp sugar (double for 4p) to the pan. 
  • Bring to the boil, stirring, then reduce the heat to medium and simmer until the sauce thickens, 5-6 mins.

TIP: Add a splash of water if you feel it's too thick.

Wilt the Spinach
4
  • When the sauce has reduced, add the spinach a handful at a time.
  • Cook until wilted and piping hot, 1-2 mins.
Finishing Touches
5
  • Stir the drained pasta, red wine jus, a knob of butter and half the cheese through the sauce.
  • Season to taste with salt and pepper.
Sprinkle and Serve
6
  • Divide the pork pasta between bowls.
  • Finish with a sprinkle of the remaining cheese.
