- 1 Avocado
- 100 g Spinach
- 2 cloves Garlic
- 2 tbsp Lemon Juice
- 150 mls Coconut Cream
- 350 -400 g Pasta
- 300 g Cherry Tomatoes
- Oil
- 25 g Pinenuts
- Salt
Toast pinenuts in a dry pan and set aside
Make sauce by blending all theingredients together in a food processor (not the cherry tomatoes or pinenuts)
Cook the pasta
While the pasta is boiling cut the tomatoes in 1/2 or 1/4's depending on their size and then fry off in olive oil.
Add avocado sauce to the pan and simmer on low heat
Pour cooked pasta and some of the starchy pasta water into the tomato pan
Mix together and serve with pinenuts.
- The avocado sauce will discolour after a while, so its best to make it fresh/ or an hour or so serving
- ALWAYS add some of the pasta water to your sauce, as the starch helps bind the sauce to the pasta.
- This tastes equally delicious cold, so leftovers are always good.
- Add some chilli flakes to the tomatoes when cooking or green chilli to the sauce for a little extra spice!
