Ingredients
- 400 g Fresh Tagliatelle or 200g of dried
- 2 Echalion shallots finely diced
- 2 Red chillies finely sliced
- 5 Cloves of garlic minced
- 100 g Courgette
- 120 g Asparagus
- 120 ml White wine
- 120 g Cherry tomatoes
- 120 g Garden peas
- 120 g Broad beans
- 80 g Mascarpone
- 1 Bunch of fresh parsley finely chopped
- 1 Bunch of fresh mint finely chopped
- 2 Lemons
- 50 g Parmesan
Instructions
- If you are using dried pasta, then drop the pasta into salted boiling water and cook as per the packet instructions.
- Prepare the vegetables, cut the courgette into small chunks, slice the asparagus ends into thin slices leaving the tips and cut the cherry tomatoes into quarters.
- Once you have all of your ingredients ready, heat some oil in a large frying pan. It is a very quick dish to cook, so if you are using fresh pasta, drop it into boiling, salted water now. It will take 3 minutes to cook.
- Pan fry the chilli, garlic and diced shallots for 1 minute. Add the courgette and asparagus and fry for a further minute.
- Pour the wine in and reduce it by half. Add the cherry tomatoes, peas and broad beans.
- Use tongs to add the pasta into the sauce, adding pasta water as you do so. Toss it all together.
- Add the mascarpone, juice of the lemons, fresh mint and parsley. Mix it all together and serve stacked high in a pasta bowl.
- Finish with grated parmesan and lemon zest.
