Ingredients
- 250 g angel hair pasta
- ¼ cup olive oil
- 2 red chilli seeded and finely chopped, long
- 1 cup Coriander leaves roughly chopped, fresh, firmly packed
- 4 garlic crushed, large fresh cloves
- 1 lemon juice & finely grated zest
- ⅓ cup Parmesan Cheese grated
- salt to taste
- black pepper to taste
Instructions
- Cook your pasta according to packet directions, then rinse and drain, and place in a large bowl.
- In a small frying pan, heat olive oil over medium-high heat until it begins to shimmer in the pan, then switch off the heat and allow to cool for 1-2 minutes, then add crushed garlic finely chopped chillies and grated lemon zest to the oil and stir to infuse the flavours into the oil as it cools further.
- Add chopped coriander to the bowl with the pasta, along with the chilli and garlic oil mixture and mix well to coat.
- Add lemon juice and salt & pepper to taste. Top with freshly grated parmesan cheese and serve.
Notes
- *Please note that the amount of calories per serve is provided as a guide only, as ingredients and cooking methods can vary greatly*
- This is a great salad to make ahead, just add the parmesan cheese just before you serve it.
- I have used angel hair pasta for this salad, but you could use another type of pasta if you like. This will add to the cooking time though.
- I allow the olive oil to cool slightly before adding the chilli, garlic & lemon because I don't want to "fry" these ingredients as such. I want tto gently heat them so they flavour the oil, which we then use as a dressing for the pasta salad along with fresh lemon juice.
- Not keen on coriander (cilantro)? Substitute fresh parsley!
- I have removed the seeds from the chilli, so the chilli heat is only mild. Feel free to leave them in if you want it hotter!
