Method

  1. Put the pasta, stock, oil, basil, chilli, artichokes and garlic in a large deep pan. Put the pan over a medium-high heat and bring to the boil. Turn down to a simmer and cook for 10 minutes, tossing now and then with tongs. Add a splash more water if needed towards the end of the cooking time. 
  2. Stir in the spinach, mozzarella and 1 tbsp pine nuts 2 minutes before the end of cooking time. Once the pasta is al dente and the sauce is thick and glossy, remove from the heat and season to taste with salt and pepper. Tear over a handful of basil leaves to serve and sprinkle over the remaining pine nuts.
