Notes

I think the notes people include in their recipes make them more personal. If I write a note myself about a recipe, it will always be written in purple.

Rotini with Cheesy Zucchini

Rotini with Cheesy Zucchini

7 ounces rotini
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 cloves garlic -- chopped
4 1/2 cups zucchini -- sliced
Salt and black pepper to taste
2/3 cup ricotta cheese -- crumbled
1 handful basil -- chopped

Cook the pasta in plenty of boiling water with a little salt and oil.
Meanwhile, heat the oil in a heavy-based pan and very gently fry the garlic until soft (don't let it brown).
Add the zucchini and gently stir-fry for 4-5 minutes. Season and set aside.
Drain the pasta and mix with the zucchini. Add the cheese, check the seasoning, garnish with basil, and serve immediately.
