Herby Creamy Rigatoni
Herby Creamy Rigatoni

with Garlicky Greens and Creme Fraiche

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 bit thick, add a little bit of the starchy pasta water to loosen up the consistency. The salty, starchy water not only adds flavor 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 0.5 tsp 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 chives and parsley (stalks and all). Zest and halve the lemon.

2
Cook the Pasta

Add the rigatoni to the pan of boiling water and simmer until cooked, 12 mins. When ready, drain in a colander, 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 cavolo nero. Season with salt and pepper and stir-fry until soft, 4-5 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
Simmer 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 powder and water (amount specified in the ingredient list). Stir to dissolve the stock powder, then simmer until reduced by half, 3-4 mins. Stir in the creme fraiche, heat through until piping hot, then season with pepper. Stir through the herbs and three quarters of the grated hard Italian cheese.

5
Combine!

Add the pasta to your sauce along with half the greens, stir everything together. Tip: If the sauce needs loosening up, just add a splash of water. Add a pinch of lemon zest and a squeeze of lemon juice.Taste and add more lemon juice, salt and pepper if you like things zingy!

6
Finish and Serve

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