jetgirl,
Lamb (and lamb mince) can be expensive here too, but we do get it regularly as we really like it.

Shelley,
LOL. I’m glad Jac loves mushrooms as much as I do, as she’s happy to include LOTS of mushrooms in dishes she cooks.

justonemorebite,
She gets our meat either from Woolworths or random butchers at whatever shopping centre she may be at. Woolworths definitely has lamb mince.

Jenny,
:) I like reading that response!

Rootbeer Racinette,
Agreed. We could have tried it with rocket (our name for arugula over here) – but I think Jac prefers spinach. I like both!

shiriai,
Spinach is fantastic in pasta sauce. But don’t put it in too early or it will overcook and end up as mush!

Melissa,
every time I eat spinach, I think of you! :-P

suzanna,
There’s no real recipe for this, as Jac just made it up, but I will try and ask her what she did. If I manage to extract a “recipe” from her I will post it.

kissy,
Yes, cheese would go very well. I just don’t eat cheese on pasta because I get gluggy from too much dairy. Such a shame, as I love cheese!

Lamb and pasta, never tried it. The pics look as good as ever. Cooked spinach is amazing. Would it be possible to put cheese with this?

My favorite part of any meal with spinach is the spinach. I can eat that every day!

@ jetgirl: yeah, i know what you mean. i come from a country where lamb is pretty pricy as well, but since i’ve started studying in australia i’ve really enjoyed both cooking and eating it. :)

wow tfp, i’m definately inspired to cook this for next week! i’ve never thought of putting spinach in pasta somehow…the photo alone is enough to convince me to give it a try!

This looks absolutely delicious! Pasta at its best. Would be also good with Arugula instead of Spinach.

Hi TFP,
Do you know where Jac got the Lamb’s mince from? I am in Perth also, and have been after Lambs mince for ages, but can’t seem to find it anywhere …
Wanted to make exactly what Jac has made, s’thing different from traditional spag bowl !!

I’ve only ever eaten lamb maybe three times. Its expensive as hell here but I bet it tastes like greatness in spaghetti!
