PASTA
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil for the pasta. Cook the pasta until al dente, 10-12 minutes. Drain and toss through a drizzle of olive oil. While the pasta is cooking, prep the olives, the basil, and the Spinach as specified in the ingredient table.
PUTTANESCA
Place a pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, add the mince and work quickly to break it up as it starts to cook. Fry until browned, 3-4 minutes (shifting occasionally). Add the Napoletana sauce and simmer until warmed through and slightly reduced, 4-5 minutes. Add the chopped olives, ½ the rinsed basil, the cooked pasta, and a sweetener (to taste). Remove from the heat, season, and set aside.
DINNER IS READY
Make a bed of the rinsed Spinach and top with the puttanesca pasta. Sprinkle over the grated cheese and the crispy chilli onions. Garnish with the remaining basil. Well done, Chef!
