Bite-sized pasta combines with herby pork and diced tomatoes to create a meal that feels a little bit fancy. Add some cheese for some extra flavour and dinner is complete (until dessert, that is!).
1 packet
Baby Spinach Leaves
1 sachet
Vegetable Stock Pot
1 packet
Diced Tomatoes with Garlic & Onion
1 sachet
Garlic & Herb Seasoning
1
Leek
1 packet
Orecchiette
(Contains: Soy, May contain traces of allergens, Wheat, Gluten;)
1 packet
Parmesan Cheese
(Contains: Milk;)
250 g
Pork Mince
1 sachet
Thyme
1 drizzle
olive oil
20 g
butter
(Contains: Milk;)
1 tsp
sugar
1.5 cup
boiling water
1 drizzle
balsamic vinegar

• Boil the kettle.
• Thinly slice leek.
• Pick thyme leaves.
• In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over high heat. Add leek and
pork mince and cook, breaking up with a spoon, until just browned, 3-4 minutes.
• Add garlic & herb seasoning and toss to coat, 1 minute.

• To the pork, add the butter, diced tomatoes with garlic & onion, thyme, stock
concentrate, the sugar and boiling water (see ingredients).
• Stir through orecchiette, then bring to the boil.
• Reduce heat to medium and cover with a lid. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the
pasta is ‘al dente’, 11 minutes.
• Remove lid, then stir through baby spinach leaves until wilted, 1 minute.
TIP: Keeping the saucepan covered helps steam to cook pasta!
TIP: ‘Al dente’ pasta is cooked through but still slightly firm in the centre.

• Increase heat to medium-high and simmer until thickened, 3-5 minutes.
• Remove pan from heat, then stir through half the Parmesan cheese. Season to
taste with salt and pepper.

• Divide saucy pork orecchiette between bowls.
• Sprinkle over remaining Parmesan cheese to serve. Enjoy!
Little cooks: Add the finishing touch by sprinkling over the Parmesan cheese!
