Ingredients

  • 350 g gluten-free spiral pasta
  • grated Parmigiano Reggiano, to serve
Pesto 
  • 100 g walnuts
  • 2 tbsp picked rosemary leaves
  • 100 ml extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 garlic clove
  • 2 anchovies
  • 1 tsp sea salt flakes
  • freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • 40 g grated Parmigiano Reggiano

Instructions

1. Cook the pasta in a large saucepan of lightly salted boiling water for 8-9 minutes or until tender. Drain and reserve some of the pasta cooking water. 

2. Meanwhile, for the pesto, place all the ingredients in a food processor and blitz until a paste is formed. Transfer the pesto to a large frying pan over low heat and warm through for about 1 minute. 

3. Once cooked, add the pasta to the pan with the pesto with a few ladles of the reserved pasta water to loosen the pesto and create a silky sauce. Stir over low heat until the pesto coats the pasta. Serve with grated Parmigiano Reggiano.
