Zucchini tossed in Angel Hair Pasta

Serves 4

2 small green zucchini

2 small yellow zucchini

3 cloves garlic, crushed

½cup extra virgin olive oil 1 large onion, chopped 500g angel hair pasta

1½ tablespoons chopped fresh thyme ¼ cup freshly squeezed lemon juice sea salt and freshly ground black pepper shaved parmesan, to serve

1.Using the processing bowl fitted with variable slicing disk, slice the zucchini to about a 4mm thickness.

2.Place the zucchini slices into a bowl with the crushed garlic and a little of the olive oil, stir through and leave for 30 minutes.

3.Remove the variable slicing blade and insert the processing blade, add onions and roughly chop.

4.Meanwhile have a large pot of salted boiling water ready for the pasta. It is best to cook the pasta so that it is ready when the zucchini is just cooked. Cook the pasta until just tender.

5.Heat remaining oil in a large deep sided frying pan and cook onions until they are translucent. Add the zucchini rounds and thyme and cook, stirring, until the zucchini just starts to soften. Add the hot drained pasta, lemon juice and salt and pepper to taste. Stir through to combine.

Tip: Use the shaving blade disk to make shaved parmesan to serve with this recipe.

2.Push down any ingredients that may have come up the sides of the bowl and add the nuts and cheese. Process for a further 20 seconds or until a desired texture is achieved.

To serve: Boil a large pot of boiling water with a little salt in it. Cook 500g pasta until just tender. Drain pasta well but do not rinse. Place hot pasta back into pot and stir through half of the pesto sauce. Add more pesto to taste if desired. Serve with extra cheese and a sprinkle of toasted pine nuts.
