Method
Mix the minced beef with the oregano and a pinch of salt and shape into small meatballs of about 3 cm. Slice the mushrooms and chop the garlic and spinach.
Heat the olive oil in a large pan and brown the meatballs for 8 minutes, turning them so they colour on all sides.
Add the mushrooms and garlic and cook for 5 minutes. Stir in the spinach and cook for 2 minutes until wilted.
Pour in the crushed tomatoes, partly cover and simmer gently for 10 minutes until the sauce thickens and the meatballs are cooked through.
Top with the fresh mozzarella, torn into pieces, and the torn fresh basil, and serve straight away.
