Heat oil in a large heavy-based saucepan over medium heat. Add onion and cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes or until softened. Add carrot and cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes or until tender.
Increase heat to medium high. Add beef mince and garlic. Cook until browned, stirring with a wooden spoon to break up mince. Add hot water, stock pots, tomato paste, diced tomatoes and oregano. Bring to the boil, stirring. Stir in pasta. Reduce heat to medium. Cover and simmer, stirring occasionally, for 15 minutes.
Str through spinach leaves and cook, stirring occasionally, for a further 3 minutes or until liquid is mostly absorbed and pasta is tender. Season to taste with pepper. Serve with Parmesan cheese and green salad.
