Rigatoni, pesto de cebettes et ricotta

Rigatoni, spring onion pesto and ricotta

Ingredients for 4 people

  • two bunches of spring onions
  • a bunch of basil
  • 60ml olive oil
  • 2 cloves of garlic
  • 50g pieces of parmesan
  • 25g sesame seeds
  • 250g ricotta
  • rigatoni pasta (or penne) - approx. 100g/person
  • chestnut honey and black garlic
  •  

    1° / In a blender, add the green part of the spring onion, basil leaves, olive oil, garlic, parmesan and sesame seeds. Blend until creamy (not completely smooth). Don't hesitate to add olive oil if the pesto seems too thick.

    2° / Cook the rigatoni following the recommendations in a large volume of salted water. Drain them, keep a little of the cooking water. 

    3° / In a frying pan, melt a little butter then add the pesto, pasta and two/three tablespoons of cooking water. At medium heat for a few minutes.

    4° / Dress by adding a generous tablespoon of ricotta on the rigatoni, a little salt and pepper then finish with a generous teaspoon of our chestnut honey and black garlic preparation.

    **note : 
if you don't have spring onions on hand, it's also very good with a 100% basil pesto
