🥦 Broccoli Pesto Pasta 🥦
.
As requested here’s the recipe for broccoli pesto pasta. Super quick and easy.
.
Ingredients for pesto-
Broccoli - 2 cups
Pasta - 2 cups ( I used penne)
Parmesan cheese - 1/4 cup
Garlic cloves - 3 or 4
Fresh or dry basil (I used dried)
Black pepper - 1/2 tsp
Salt - 1/2tsp
Lemon juice - 1/2 tsp
Oil - 1 tbsp ( olive oil or vegetable)
Water 2-3 tbsp
.
🥦In a pan add 4-5 cups of water and bring to boil, add broccoli florets to the water and cook for about 3-4 minutes and transfer the florets to cold water.
.
🥦To the same water add pasta and cook until it breaks easily and drain all the water. Leave it aside.
.
🥦To a mixer, add cooled down broccoli florets, all the ingredients above and make a fine paste.
.
🥦In a thick bottomed pan add butter, and some Brussel sprouts and cherry tomatoes (normal tomatoes works too).
.
🥦Make sure you fry Brussel sprout well. It actually tastes like radish. If you don’t cook it well it tends to leave out a spicy taste like radish when consumed raw.
.
🥦Once Brussel sprouts is cooked well add cooked pasta to it.
.
🥦Lastly add the pesto and mix well. You can add extra cheese and a little basil leaves too.
.
🥦I found this recipe on YouTube channel called veggie recipe and I just added some extra ingredients and it tasted aaaahhhmaazing 👌
.
🥦Do give it a try and let me know if you liked it.
.
🥦Feel free to play around with veggies. If you don’t get brussel sprouts you can skip that.
