Cooking Steps

Cook the spaghetti
1

• Boil the kettle. Fill a medium saucepan with boiling water over high heat, then add a pinch of salt. • Cook spaghetti in boiling water, uncovered, until 'al dente', 10 minutes. • Reserve some pasta water (1/3 cup for 2 people / 2/3 cup for 4 people), then drain and return spaghetti to the saucepan. TIP: 'Al dente' pasta is cooked through but still slightly firm in the centre

• Meanwhile, grate zucchini.

Cook the sauce
3

• Heat a large frying pan over high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Cook sliced mushrooms and beef mince, breaking up mince with a spoon, until browned, 5-6 minutes. Add zucchini and cook for a further 2-3 minutes. Drain oil from the pan. • Reduce heat to medium, then add thickened cream, stock concentrate, Nan's special seasoning and reserved pasta water and cook until bubbling, 1 minute. • Add baby spinach leaves, the butter, a pinch of chilli flakes (if using) and the cooked spaghetti, toss to coat and cook until spinach is wilted, 1-2 minutes. Season to taste.

Finish & serve

Review summary

Updated on July 2026
  • Flavour: The creamy beef and mushroom sauce is well-received, with the Parmesan adding a satisfying sharpness.
  • Suggestions: Double-check the protein in your kit matches the recipe card, as some customers received pork mince instead of beef.
