Spinach pasta

by julieg 15. May 2009 05:50

We had this for dinner last night. I can’t claim the recipe as my own and I can only tell you I cut it out of a newspaper a few years ago. It is real comfort food and if you’re not too keen on spinach, the flavour is not too strong. I didn’t have quite enough spinach so I threw in some rocket too. Also, I didn’t have any double cream so I used single cream and a spoonful of soft cheese.

Serves 2
180g dried pasta
250g baby spinach, wilted
2 tbsp olive oil
6 spring onions
1 clove garlic, chopped
zest of 1 lemon
5 tbsp double cream, mascarpone or crème fraiche
4 tbsp grated parmesan 

Cook the pasta. Meanwhile, wilt the spinach, drain under cold water, squeeze out and chop.Fry the spring onions and garlic gently until softened. Add spinach, lemon zest, cream and warm gently.Add parmesan, season to taste and toss in with the pasta. Lovely and easy too.
