Prep time
5 mins
Ingredients
- Parmesan: 50g parmesan (or vegetarian alternative), grated, plus extra to serve (optional)
- Spaghetti: 350g spaghetti
- Egg: 2 eggs
- Milk: 2 tbsp milk
- Pine Nuts: 50g pine nuts
- Artichoke: 390g can artichoke, drained, quartered and dried
- Green Pesto: 4 tbsp green pesto
Directions
- Cook the spaghetti following pack instructions. Meanwhile, in a small bowl or jug, beat the eggs together with the milk, pesto, Parmesan, artichokes and seasoning.
- Heat a small pan on a medium heat and add the pine nuts. Toast for a few mins, shaking the pan occasionally, until they are pale golden. Keep your eye on them as they can catch and burn quickly.
- Once the pasta is cooked, drain in a colander and tip back into the pan. Put the pan onto a low heat and pour over the egg mixture, tossing together to coat all of the pasta in the sauce - take care not to heat it for too long or it will start to scramble.
- Toss through the toasted pine nuts and serve with extra Parmesan at the table, if you like.
