Ingredients

Servings
  • 185 g asparagus cleaned and woody ends chopped off (see Note 1)
  • 1 cup pea frozen
  • 2 cups spinach
  • 250 g whole wheat linguine fresh or dired (see Note 2
  • 2 cloves garlic finely chopped
  • 2 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 1 pinch black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon mint freshly chopped
  • 2 tablespoon mascarpone cheese

Instructions

  1. Blanch the asparagus, peas and spinach in boiling water for a few minutes. Remove and refresh in cold water.
  2. In the same pot you cooked the greens, cook the fresh pasta, Fresh pasta will cook a lot quicker. If using dried cook until al dente. Reseve a little of the pasta water.
  3. Heat a pan with a little olive oil. Once heated, add the garlic and fry. Add the drained, cooled greens and toss everything around for a few mins. Season the pasta and toss through the mint.
  4. Add the mascarpone and toss again - ensuring everything is well incorporated. If you find it's getting dry pour in some of the pasta water. Add the mascarpone and mix again.
  5. Serve with grated Parmiggiano Regiano and enjoy.

Notes

  • In Australia small bunches of asparagus are sold in bunches which weigh approximately 185 grams.
  • Use dried linguine or any other pasta you wish.
  • Be flexible with the herbs too - use anything you fancy.
