Preparation method
Ingredients overview
- 300 g whole wheat pasta
- 3 cloves garlic
- 2 tablespoons rapeseed oil
- 50 g baby spinach
- 130 g frozen green peas
- 50 g cashews
- 250 ml semi-skimmed milk
- 2 tablespoons nutritional yeast flakes
- 1 pinch salt
- 1 pinch black pepper
First, put the pasta on to cook: bring a generous amount of water to a boil in a large pot. Salt it, add the pasta, then cook over medium heat for the time indicated on the package (approx. 14-15 minutes), until al dente.
Meanwhile, peel and roughly chop the garlic. Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a pan, add the garlic, and sauté over medium heat for 2-3 minutes. Then add the baby spinach, 50 g of green peas, and about half a ladleful of the pasta cooking water. Cook for 2-3 minutes, then remove from heat. Transfer the mixture to a blender, add the cashews, milk, nutritional yeast flakes, salt, and pepper, then blend until completely smooth.
When the pasta is cooked, drain it and return it to the pot. Add the remaining green peas and the blended sauce. Mix thoroughly, divide into 4 portions, and serve warm.
Chef's tip
Before serving, you can garnish with fresh herbs or a little extra nutritional yeast flakes for an even more intense flavor.
