150g-200g plain flour

160g diced pancetta

2 cloves garlic, chopped

1 red chilli, deseeded and diced

10g sage leaves

20g Parmesan, shaved

Method

1
Bring a large pan of water to the boil, add the potatoes, and cook for 12 mins until tender. Drain and mash.
2
Put 50g of the spinach in a processor with the egg and blitz to a paste.
3
Stir through the mash; season with black pepper. Add the plain flour, 50g at a time, mixing as you go, until it forms a dough.
4
Dust a work surface with flour and knead the dough for 1 min. Divide into 4 and roll into logs. Cut into 3cm pieces.

Put the pancetta in a nonstick frying pan; dry-fry for 4-6 mins. Add the garlic, chilli and sage. Cook for 2 mins.
