250 g
Beef & Pork Mince
1 packet
Garlic Paste
1 packet
Parmesan Cheese
(Contains: Milk;)
1 packet
Baby Spinach Leaves
1
Leek
1 sachet
Tomato & Herb Seasoning
1 packet
Penne
(Contains: Gluten, Wheat; May be present: Soy.)
1 packet
Soffritto Mix
1 packet
Diced Tomatoes with Garlic & Onion
1 tsp
brown sugar
1 drizzle
olive oil

• Boil the kettle. Fill a large saucepan with boiling water and a pinch of salt
over high heat.
• Add penne to the boiling water and cook, until ‘al dente’, 12 minutes.
• Reserve some pasta water(see ingredients). Drain penne, then return to
saucepan with a drizzle of olive oil.
TIP: ‘Al dente’ pasta is cooked through but still slightly firm in the centre.
Little cooks: Older kids, help add the pasta to the saucepan under adult
supervision. Be careful, the water is boiling!

• Meanwhile, thinly slice leek.
• Heat a large frying pan over high heat.
• Cook beef & pork mince, leek and soffritto mix (no need for oil!), breaking
up with a spoon, until just browned, 4-5 minutes.

• Reduce heat to medium, then add tomato & herb seasoning and garlic
paste and cook until fragrant, 1 minute.
• Stir in diced tomatoes with onion & garlic, the reserved pasta water,
brown sugar and simmer until slightly thickened, 1-2 minutes.
• Add cooked pasta and baby spinach leaves, stirring to combine, 1 minute.
Season with salt and pepper to taste.

• Divide tomato beef and pork penne alla bolognese between bowls.
• Top with Parmesan cheese to serve. Enjoy!
Little cooks: Add the finishing touch by sprinkling over the Parmesan cheese!
