Greek

A quicker version of a rich Greek pork ragù, this easy pasta dish only needs two pans - one for the sauce, one for the pasta. Greek olives impart an authentic flavour whilst the tomatoey sauce makes the pork something special.

Ingredients

Preparation

1
Get Started

Preheat your oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7.

Heat a drizzle of oil in a large, wide-bottomed pan on medium-high heat. 

Once hot, add the pork mince and fry until browned, 5-6 mins. Use a spoon to break it up as it cooks. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw mince.

When the mince has browned, drain and discard any excess fat. Season with salt and pepper.

2
Flavour Time

Meanwhile, halve any thick broccoli stems lengthways. Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press). 

Add the garlic and tomato puree to the pan. Stir-fry until fragrant, 1 min. 

Stir through the mixed herbs, red wine stock paste, Worcester sauce and the sugar and water for the sauce (see pantry for both amounts). Season with salt and pepper.

3
Simmer the Ragu

Bring the ragu to the boil, cover the pan with a lid, then lower to a simmer.

Cook until thickened, 10-12 mins. IMPORTANT: The mince is cooked when no longer pink in the middle.

Meanwhile, pop the Tenderstem® broccoli onto a baking tray. Drizzle with oil, season with salt and pepper, then toss to coat. Spread out in a single layer.

Roast on the middle shelf until tender and crispy, 10-12 mins.

If you'd prefer to boil your broccoli, add to the pan of pasta in step 4 for the last 4-5 mins, until tender.

4
Cook the Pasta

Meanwhile, bring a large saucepan of water to the boil with ½ tsp salt for the spaghetti.

When boiling, add the spaghetti to the water and bring back to the boil. Cook until tender, 8 mins. Once cooked, drain in a colander and pop back in the pan.

Drizzle with oil and stir through to stop it sticking together.

5
All Together Now

When everything's ready, stir the butter (see pantry for amount), olives and cooked pasta through the ragu.

Add a splash of water if you need to loosen the sauce.

6
Serve Up

Share the ragu and pasta between your serving bowls.

Crumble over the Greek style salad cheese, top with a handful of rocket and a drizzle of oil over the leaves to finish.

Serve the broccoli alongside.
