Cooking Steps
- Boil plenty of water in a pot or saucepan and crumble in the stock cube (see pantry for amount). Cook the spaghetti for 10 - 12 minutes, then reserve some of the pasta water before draining and setting aside.
- Meanwhile, cut the Romano pepper into strips and crush or mince the garlic.
- Deseed and finely chop the red chili pepper*.
*Take care, this ingredient is spicy! Use as preferred.
- Melt a knob of butter in a deep frying pan over high heat and fry the Romano pepper, garlic and chili pepper for 1 - 2 minutes.
- Add the mince and fry for 2 - 3 minutes.
Did you know... as well as vitamin C, Romano peppers are also high in vitamin E. This antioxidant is also found in sunflower oil, wholegrain products, nuts, seeds and green vegetables.
- Add the diced tomatoes and fry for 2 - 3 more minutes.
- Meanwhile, finely chop the parsley.
- Reduce the heat and tear the spinach directly into the pan, in batches if necessary. Mix well so as to allow to wilt and reduce.
- Stir in the cream cheese, then taste and season with salt and pepper as needed.
- Add the spaghetti and mix well to combine, adding a splash of pasta water as necessary if the sauce is too dry.
- Serve the spaghetti on deep plates. Drizzle with the harissa and garnish with the parsley.
