Yield 2-3 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

150 g pasta (penne works well)
2 large mushrooms, sliced
1 small zucchini, sliced
1/2 cup green peas
4 medium tomatoes, cored and chopped
1 spring onion, chopped
200 g ricotta cheese
1/8 cup milk
2 teaspoons hot sauce
2 tablespoons oil

Steps:

  • Heat a large pot of water to boiling and throw in the pasta.
  • Meanwhile, heat 1 tbsp of the oil in a small sauce pan and put in the white part of the spring onion.
  • Fry for about 30 seconds and then add the tomatoes.
  • Bring to a simmer and let cook for about 10 minutes, adding a spoonful of water if the tomatoes get too dry, until you have a sauce.
  • While the tomatoes are simmering, you can lightly fry your veggies in the other tbsp of oil.
  • When the tomatoes have cooked down, add the ricotta, milk and hot sauce.
  • Blend with a hand blender to make the sauce smooth.
  • Drain the pasta and toss with the sauce.
  • Top with the veggies, green part of the spring onion and parmesan cheese if desired.
  • Salt and pepper to taste.
