Tagliatelle with artichoke hearts and purple sprouting broccoli.

Ingredients:

  • 1 can of artichoke hearts in water, drained.
  • 100g purple sprouting broccoli
  • 10g flaked almonds, toasted.
  • As much Tagliatelle as you want for two people
  • 1 tbsp smoked garlic oil
  • zest and juice of half a lemon ( use the rest with your G&T )
  • black pepper
  • 1/2 tsp dried tarragon
  • 50g parmesan ( optional )

Method:

  • Put your pan of pasta water on, and when it’s boiling, put your pasta in. You can add a bit of salt here if you want.
  • Slice the artichoke hearts in two, toss them in a little oil and salt and pepper, and put them under the grill for about 10 minutes or until they have started to char a bit.
  • Cut up the broccoli and a couple of minutes before the artichoke is done, pop it under the grill in the same dish as the artichoke.
  • Make the dressing by mixing the oil, the lemon juice, the zest and the tarragon.
  • Once the pasta is done, drain it and then, in a big bowl, mix together the pasta, the artichokes and broccoli and the dressing.
  • Grate the parmesan over the top just before serving and grind a bit of black pepper over the top.
