Creamy Rigatoni
Creamy Rigatoni

with Garlicky Greens and Mascarpone

25 min
Difficulty: 2/3
Italian

Wilted dark greens combined with a hearty portion of creamy garlicky pasta make this recipe a seriously satisfying weeknight supper. If you feel the creamy sauce is a little too thick, add a bit of the starchy pasta water to loosen up the consistency. The salty, starchy water not only adds flavour but helps the sauce cling to the rigatoni (this is a great trick that works for all pasta sauces). Buon appetito!

Preparation
1
Prep Time

Put a large saucepan of water with a pinch of salt on to boil for the pasta. Halve, peel and thinly slice the shallot. Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press). Pull a vegetable peeler lengthways along the courgette to make ribbons (see picture). Finely chop both the parsley and the basil (stalks and all).

2
Cook the Pasta

Add the rigatoni to the pan of boiling water and cook for 11-12 mins or until ‘al dente’. TIP: ‘Al dente’ simply means the pasta is cooked through but has a tiny bit of firmness left in the middle. When ready, drain in a colander, reserving a little of the starchy pasta water for later and return to the pan and drizzle over some oil to stop it sticking together.

3
Stir-Fry the Greens

Meanwhile, heat a glug of oil in a frying pan on medium heat. Once hot, add the courgette and rainbow chard and kale mix. Add a pinch of salt and pepper and stir-fry until soft, 4 mins. Add the garlic, mix well and cook for 1 minute more. Pop the greens in a mixing bowl and cover with some foil to keep warm.

4
Make the Sauce

Put your frying pan back on medium heat with a splash of oil and add the shallot. Cook until softened, stirring occasionally, 4-5 mins, then add the stock pot and water (amount specified in the ingredient list). Stir to dissolve the stock pot, then simmer until reduced by half, 3-4 mins. Tip in the mascarpone, heat through until piping hot, then season with pepper. Stir through the herbs and half the hard Italian cheese.

5
Combine!

Add the pasta to your sauce and stir everything together. TIP: If you feel the sauce is a little stiff, just add a splash of the reserved pasta water.Zest the lemon and add a pinch of zest and a squeeze of lemon juice to the pan. Taste and add more lemon juice if you like things zingy!

6
Finish and Serve

Serve the creamy pasta in bowls with the garlicky greens on top and a sprinkling of the remaining hard Italian cheese. Enjoy!
