Directions
- Step 1 Start frying the onions in the oil in a non-stick frying pan - you'll need to cook them for about 10 mins until they're very soft. Meanwhile, boil the pasta.
- Step 2 Stir the vinegar, sultanas, capers and most of the pine nuts into the soft onions with some seasoning, then cook for 1 min more to soften the sultanas. Stir in the spinach with a splash of pasta water. Drain the pasta, then toss with the onion mix - the spinach should wilt as you do. Divide between 2 bowls, scatter with the remaining pine nuts and serve.
