Gluten Free Spirals with Walnut Rosemary Pesto
Recipe by Helen Tzouganatos
Ingredients:
Pesto
100g walnuts
2 tbsp fresh rosemary leaves
100g extra virgin olive oil
1 garlic clove
2 anchovies
1 tsp sea salt flakes
Pinch of cracked pepper
40g parmigiano reggiano
350g gluten free spiral pasta
Parmigiano reggiano, grated to serve
Method:
Cook pasta in a large pot of salted boiling water for 8-9 minutes. Drain and reserve some pasta water.
Combine pesto ingredients in a food processor and blitz until paste is formed.
Transfer pesto to a large sauce frypan over a low heat and warm through for about a minute.
Add the pasta to the pan over low heat and add a few ladles of starchy pasta water to loosen the pesto and create a silky sauce. Stir through over a low heat until the pesto coats the pasta.
Serve with grated parmigiano reggiano.
