Roasted Artichoke Pasta
Ingredients
- Sun-dried Tomatoes: 100g
- Roasted Artichokes: 140g
- Pine Nuts (optional)
- Ricotta: 80-125g
- Pasta (preferably fresh)
- Mixed Herbs (I use a Herbes de Provence blend)
- Salt
Method
- Preheat the oven to 200°C (390°F, gas mark 6).
- Find a roasting tray with space for the artichokes and sun-dried tomatoes.
- Drain the jar of artichokes and lay them on the tray. Roast for 20-30 minutes.
- Drain the jar of sun-dried tomatoes and add them to the tray for the last 8-12 minutes.
- While the other ingredients are roasting add the ricotta and herbs to a mixing bowl. Mix well.
- If you're adding pine nuts then gently fry them in oil in a small frying pan.
- Cook the pasta per packet instructions then drain and leave to cool.
- Take the baking tray out of the oven and add all ingredients to the mixing bowl. Mix well and serve.
Notes
- Ingredients are per person, so scale it appropriately.
- 12 minutes for tomatoes and 27 for (Waitrose) artichokes at ${200.celsius} in your oven. Can probably -2 to +5 on artichokes without much trouble.
- Waiting for the pasta and vegetables to cool before mixing with the ricotta is optional. It depends how to feel about heat affecting the ricotta's texture.
