Pappardelle with rocket pesto

Step 1

To make the rocket pesto, place the rocket, basil, parmesan, walnuts, pinenuts and garlic in the bowl of a food processor and process until finely chopped. While the motor is running, gradually add the oil in a thin, steady stream until incorporated. Taste and season with salt and pepper.

Step 2

Use a serrated pastry wheel to cut the pasta sheets into 3cm-wide strips. Cook the pasta in a large saucepan of salted boiling water until al dente. Drain well and return to the pan with the pesto. Gently toss to combine.

Step 3

Divide evenly among serving bowls and serve immediately.
