Preparation

Boil a half-full kettle.
Drain the sweetcorn. Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press).
Heat a frying pan on medium-high heat (no oil).
Once hot, fry the beef and roasted spice and herb blend, 5-6 mins. Break up the mince as it cooks. IMPORTANT: Wash hands and utensils after handling raw meat. Cook so there's no pink in the middle

Put the couscous into a bowl.
Pour in the boiling water (see pantry). Stir in half the chicken stock paste.
Cover tightly with cling film. Leave to the side, 10 mins.
Drain the fat from the mince. Season with salt and pepper.

Add the garlic to the beef. Cook, 1 min more.
Stir in the sweetcorn, passata, chipotle (add less if you'd prefer things milder), honey, butter (see pantry for both) and remaining chicken stock paste.
Bring to the boil. Simmer, 2-3 mins.
Add the spinach in handfuls, making sure it's piping hot, 1-2 mins. Add a splash of water if it's a little thick.
