Notes
- To make this Spring pasta even quicker, use some fresh tagliatelle which is ready in a few minutes.
- Don't forget to reserve some of the pasta water. You really don't want to skip this step, as it makes the sauce so silky.
- If you like your food spicy, then add a sprinkle of red chilli flakes on top before serving.
- Serve with extra Parmesan and cracked black pepper if you like. Although the parmesan would mean this isn't vegan any more.
- Top with some pine nuts for added crunch.
- Add some extra greens by cooking some broccoli at the same time as the pasta and asparagus.
