  9. Only add a little water as you want a thick beef sauce not a watery stew, 2 tablespoons should be enough, just add a little water at a time so that you are in control of how much water you add.
  10. Place a lid on and simmer for approximately 10 minutes or until beef is cooked tender.
  11. Now add the spinach still simmering.
  12. Cook only for a few minutes until the spinach leaves wilt, spinach does not take long to cook.
