PASTA WITH CARROTS, SAGE, AND SCALLIONS



Pasta With Carrots, Sage, and Scallions image

I adapted this from an old Vegetarian Times cookbook. It's a big hit with my carrot-loving hubby -- I think we eat this at least once a week! The original recipe called for farfalle/bow tie pasta, but it really works with any shape. You can adjust the amount of sage according to how big the leaves are -- what you are going for is a nice handful. Whatever you do, please do not try to sub dried sage, it won't work! You can, however, use whatever type of hard grating cheese you have handy -- I have used Parmesan, Asiago, and Pecorino Romano, all with good results. (The original recipe called for Monterey Jack, but I thought that was just weird...) Anyway, hope you enjoy this as much as I do!

Time 30m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

8 ounces whole wheat pasta
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
3 large carrots, julienned
3 scallions, thinly sliced
12 -15 large fresh sage leaves, cut into thin strips
salt & freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon butter
1 1/2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1/4 cup parmesan cheese, grated

Steps:

  • Bring a big pot of water to a boil and cook the pasta until al dente. When it's done, drain and put back in the pot to keep warm.
  • While the pasta cooks, heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. When hot, add the carrots and cook, stirring frequently, until they are lightly browned, about 5 minutes (more or less depending on how thinly they are cut). Add the scallions and sage to the pan and stir around for a couple minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper. If the pasta is still cooking, set the skillet off to the side and keep warm.
  • Add the butter and lemon juice to the drained pasta and stir until the butter is melted and everything is combined well. Divide the pasta among 4 serving plates and top with the carrot mixture. Serve garnished with the cheese.
