Time 1h5m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

175 g spaghetti
1 aubergine, cubed
1 courgette, sliced
1 red pepper, deseeded and sliced
6 tablespoons olive oil
2 garlic cloves, crushed
50 g melted butter
15 g white breadcrumbs

Steps:

  • Cook the spaghetti in boiling water for 8 - 10 mins so it still has some bite inches Drain and set aside.
  • Mix the olive oil with the garlic.
  • place the vegetables on a large tray and drizzle over the olive oil.
  • Grill the veg for 10 mins until tender and lightly charred. Keep warm.
  • divide the spaghetti among 4 greased tins. (I use a Yorkshire pudding pan) Curl round a fork to form nest shapes and brush with the melted butter and sprinkle with the breadcrumbs.
  • bake the pasta nests for 15 mins at 200C/400F.
  • Place a pasta nest on a serving plate and to with the grilled vegetables.
