Cheesy Herby Chorizo & Leek Orecchiette

with Garlic Pangrattato

'Pangrattato' is Italian for breadcrumb and it adds a delicious, traditional crunch when sprinkled over pasta. The orecchiette (meaning 'little ears' in Italian) is the perfect pasta shape for cradling the juicy chorizo and tender veg. What more could you want?

Cooking Steps

1

• Boil the kettle. Finely chop garlic. • In a large frying pan, heat a generous drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. Cook panko breadcrumbs (see ingredients), stirring, until golden brown, 3 minutes. • Add half the garlic and cook until fragrant, 1-2 minutes. Season and transfer to a bowl.

• Meanwhile, half-fill a medium saucepan with boiling water. • Cook orecchiette in the boiling water until ‘al dente’, 11 minutes. Reserve some pasta water (1/4 cup for 2 people / 1/2 cup for 4 people). Drain orecchiette and return to the saucepan. • Meanwhile, thinly slice leek into rounds. Slice zucchini into half-moons. Roughly chop brown onion and mild chorizo.

TIP: ‘Al dente’ pasta is cooked through but still slightly firm in the centre.

• Return the frying pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Cook chorizo, tossing, until browned, 4-5 minutes. • Add leek, zucchini and onion and cook until tender, 4-5 minutes. Add garlic & herb seasoning and remaining garlic and cook until fragrant, 1-2 minutes. Add thickened cream and the butter. Simmer until slightly reduced, 1-2 minutes. Add orecchiette and reserved pasta water, stir to combine and simmer until slightly reduced, 1 minute. Add baby spinach leaves and stir to combine. Season to taste.
