6. Simmer for about an 1-1 1/2 hour on low heat for the meat to cook well.
7. Stir occasionally and add some water if needed.
8. Do not add too much water because the spinach will release some water and you want the sauce to be thick.
9. Add the spinach, between the meat and cook for about 15 minutes or until the spinach is cooked and the sauce is thick.
