Description

This kale pesto pasta is packed with Italian flavour and creamy burrata.

Method

Step 1 of 5

Add all the ingredients for the pesto to a blender and blitz until you have a smooth sauce.

Step 2 of 5

Bring a large saucepan of water to the boil and cook the pasta according to pack instructions - 8 minutes or so until al dente. Reserve a cup of starchy water and drain.

Step 3 of 5

Heat the olive oil in a large saucepan on a medium high heat and cook the pine nuts for 2-3 minutes until lightly golden. Add the garlic and lemon zest and cook for 2 minutes.

Step 4 of 5

Add the pasta to the saucepan and pour over the kale pesto and lemon juice, mixing well. Add as much starchy water to the pan as needed to loosen the sauce and coat all the pasta.

Step 5 of 5

Serve in bowls with torn burrata and cracked black pepper on top.
