Rocket & Chilli Spaghetti image

I adapted this recipe from a non veggie friendly Jamie Oliver recipe which had parmesan and anchovies in it. I love this as its got a really perky flavour and its quick to make!

Time 15m

Yield 1 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 small garlic clove, peeled and finely sliced
1/4 teaspoon chili flakes
1 tablespoon capers
100 g rocket
1/2 lemon
35 g spaghetti
salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Heat a wide saucepan or frying pan over a medium heat and add half the extra virgin olive oil.
  • Add the garlic, chilli and capers and fry gently for a minute or so. Add 2 handfuls of the rocket, the lemon zest and a good squeeze from half the lemon (you dont need all of it)and add half of the nutrional yeast, then remove from the heat. The rocket will wilt from the heat - mix it well with the garlic, chilli and capers.
  • Meanwhile, cook the spaghetti in plenty of salted boiling water, according to the packet instructions, and drain.
  • Toss together with the rocket and chilli sauce.
  • Season well with salt and pepper and serve with some of the reserved fresh rocket with more nutritional yeast and olive oil on top.
