Ingredients:
  • 500g angel hair pasta or other long, thin pasta
  • 36.40 gm olive oil
  • 60g butter
  • 2 cloves garlic, crushed
  • 40g (1/2 cup) finely grated parmesan
  • 2 long red chillies, seeded, finely chopped
  • 1 lemon, zested, juiced
  • 62.50 ml basil leaves, finely shredded
  • 60g baby rocket
  • Baguette (optional), to serve
Instructions:
  • Boil pasta in generously salted water until al dente, about 8 minutes. Save 60ml (1/4 cup) of the pasta water before draining. Put pasta in a large heatproof bowl.
  • In a small saucepan, combine oil, butter, and garlic. Cook over high heat, stirring, for 2 minutes until garlic begins to color. Remove from heat and let cool for 10 minutes before using.
  • Drizzle the fragrant oil mixture over the pasta, then sprinkle with parmesan, chillies, lemon zest and juice, fresh basil, arugula, and reserved cooking water. Season generously with salt and pepper, then toss everything together until well mixed.
  • Serve the pasta in individual bowls with a side of baguette, if desired.
