Ingredients




150g spaghetti,
1 x large onion (chopped),
1 x garlic clove (minced),
200g spinach leaves,
125g ricotta (I use Galbani),
1 x tbsp of toasted pine nuts,
Salt and pepper.

Preparation

1 Place a pot of water on the heat and when it boils add salt, spaghetti and cook for 9 minutes or until ‘aldente’, 2 Whilst the pasta is cooking, place a non stick pan on the heat and gently cook the onion and garlic until soft, 3 Turn the heat down on the pan, and add the spinach and place the lid on top for a minute or two, 4 Stir the ricotta into the spinach mix, place the lid back onto the pan and set aside off the heat until the pasta is ready, 5 Drain the pasta and then mix in the spinach and ricotta mix, 6 If you decide on the pine nuts, simply toast them in a non stick pan until they start turning golden, 7 Enjoy with a grating of parmesan (optional), chilli oil (optional) and a nice glass of chilled white wine.
