Ingredients
- 150g spelt or wholemeal penne, or other pasta shapes
- 175g broccoli, cut into small florets
- 125g sugar snap peas, halved
- 15g butter
- 1 tsp Marmite or other yeast extract
- 40g wild rocket or spinach
- 60g extra-mature cheddar, grated finely
Step by step
- Add the pasta to a large pan of salted boiling water and cook for 7 minutes. Add the broccoli and sugar snaps and cook for a further 4 minutes or until the pasta and veg are both al dente. Drain, reserving a mugful of the cooking water.
- Melt the butter in the same pan, with 3 tablespoons of the cooking water and the Marmite, stirring to combine. Mix in the rocket or spinach, then return the pasta and veg to the pan, adding most of the cheese and a few good grindings of black pepper. Toss to coat in the light buttery sauce, adding a little more of the pasta cooking water if needed.
- Divide between 2 bowls and top with the remaining cheese.
