Serves 2 persons

Equipment required:

  • Knife and cutting board, 2 medium saucepans
  • 1 grater (microplane)
Ingredients required:
  • 300 gram of pasta (Penne, Mezze Maniche etc)
  • 300 ml of creme fraiche
  • 100 grams of goat cheese
  • 1 bag of spinach leaves
  • 1 red chilli
  • 2 cloves of garlic
  • Olive oil for frying
  • Salt and pepper

For the dressing:

  • Olive oil
  • Liquid honey
  • White wine vinegar
  • 50 grams roasted pinenuts

Henrik says that this pasta also pairs well with any cooked protein - fish, chicken or meat.

* NOTE: Get your pan of water on NOW! *

Steps:

Start with boiling 2 litres of salted water

Cook the pasta per the instructions for the specific pasta

Finely chop the garlic & chilli and sautè in a frying pan with a splash of olive oil (Sautè means to lightly fry - don’t add colour)

Add crème fraiche and melt the goats cheese together with the garlic & chilli to make a sauce

When the pasta is ready, fold the pasta and sauce together in the pan

Fry the spinach in a separate pan with a splash of olive oil and salt

Stir together the ingredients for the dressing, top the pasta with spinach and drizzle the dressing over the top

Enjoy!
