Preparation
Boil the pasta
- Bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil.
- Add the pasta; stir gently to separate.
- Boil, 8 to 10 min., until al dente.
- Reserving ½ cup cooking water (double for 4 portions), drain and toss with a drizzle of oil to prevent sticking.
Start the beef
- Meanwhile, in a large pan, heat a drizzle of oil on medium-high.
- Add the beef and cook, breaking up the meat, 3 to 5 min., until partially cooked; season with the spices.
Finish the beef & cook the vegetables
- To the pan, add the mushrooms, tomatoes, garlic and S&P.
- Cook, stirring often, 3 to 5 min., until the vegetables are tender and the beef* is cooked through.
Combine the pasta & serve
- To the pan, add the pasta, spinach, demi-glace, reserved cooking water and S&P.
- Cook, stirring often, scraping up any browned bits, 1 to 2 min., until the sauce has thickened and the pasta is combined.
- Add 2 tbsp butter (double for 4 portions); stir well.
- Divide the pasta between your bowls. Bon appétit!
*Health Canada recommends cooking ground pork to a minimum internal temperature of 71°C.
