Cooking Steps
1
- Boil a large pot of salted water for the rigatoni.
- When boiling, add the rigatoni to the pot and bring back to the boil.
- Cook until softened, 12 mins. Once cooked, drain in a colander and pop back in the pot.
- Drizzle with oil and stir through to stop it sticking together.
TIP: If you’re in a hurry you can boil the water in your kettle.
2
- Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press).
- Trim the courgette then halve lengthways. Slice widthways into 1cm thick pieces.
- In a small bowl, mix the garlic with 2 tbsp oil (double for 4p), Italian herbs and courgette.
- Halve the tomatoes and mix with the pesto in a separate small bowl.
3
- Place a pan (without oil) over a medium heat.
- Fry the courgette for 1 min.
- Add the tomatoes and cook for 4-5 mins, until softened.
- Add the balsamic vinegar, cooked rigatoni and half the cheese to the pan.
- Stir, turn off the heat and season to taste with salt and pepper.
4
- Divide the rigatoni and veg between bowls.
- Garnish with the remaining cheese.
