Cooking Steps
• Boil the kettle. In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over high heat. Cook snacking tomatoes, stirring occasionally, until blistered, 4-5 minutes. Transfer to a small bowl. • Pour boiling water into a large saucepan over high heat. Add a pinch of salt, then bring to the boil. Cook fettuccine in boiling water until ‘al dente’, 9 minutes. • Reserve some pasta water (2 tbs for 2 people / 1/4 cup for 4 people), then drain pasta and return to pan. Drizzle with olive oil to prevent sticking. ~~~~~~~~~~ MODULAR STEP ~~~~~~~~~~
• While pasta is cooking, grate zucchini. Thinly slice apple into wedges. • In a large bowl, combine a drizzle of olive oil and white wine vinegar. Season with salt and pepper. Add apple, flaked almonds and mixed salad leaves. Set aside. TIP: Toss the salad just before serving to keep the leaves crisp.
• Return frying pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Cook zucchini until softened, 2-3 minutes. • Add garlic paste and cook until fragrant, 1 minute. • Add plant-based cooking cream and vegetable stock pot and cook until slightly thickened, 2-3 minutes. • Stir in basil pesto, a pinch of chilli flakes (if using), fettuccine and reserved pasta water until heated through. • Remove pan from heat. Stir in blistered tomatoes. ~~~~~~~~~~ MODULAR STEP ~~~~~~~~~~ Custom Recipe: If you've added diced bacon, cook it with the zucchini, breaking it up with a spoon, until golden, 4-6 minutes. Continue with the step as above.
• Season pasta to taste. Toss salad to coat. • Divide pesto and cherry tomato pasta between bowls. Sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese. • Serve with apple and almond salad. Enjoy!
