This simple and delicious recipe was sent to us from The Yorkshire Pasta Company. Take a look at more of their delicious Pasta here.
It is one of the first dishes from the early days when testing the Yorkshire Pasta concept on friends and it has remained a firm favourite. This dish can be enjoyed hot or cold, simply leave your pasta to cool before adding the pesto to it for the later. It will keep overnight in the fridge but be sure to keep in an airtight container to preserve the vibrant green colour.
A super fast dressing with fabulous results.
200g of Yorkshire Pasta, we are using ’Mezze Maniche Rigate’
25g of Pine kernels
45g of Fresh Basil Leaves
150ml of Yorkshire Rapeseed oil
1 large Garlic Clove
55g of Parmesan Cheese
Salt to taste
Method:
Cook your Yorkshire Pasta according to pack instructions.
Lightly toast your pine kernels and pop to the side to cool.
Place the basil leaves into your food processor with the Yorkshire Rapeseed Oil and Garlic Clove.
Add your cooled Pine Kernels.
Give a quick blitz in your food processor. You can also use a stick blender in a dish or a good old pestle and mortar does the job too.
Blitz until well pureed.
Then add the parmesan cheese.
Toss the cooked Yorkshire Pasta in your Pesto Sauce. Serve and enjoy!
