Cooking Steps
• Boil the kettle.
• Half-fill a large saucepan with boiling water and a generous pinch of salt
over high heat.
• Cook spaghetti in boiling water until ‘al dente’, 9 minutes.
• Reserve some pasta water (1/2 cup for 2 people / 1 cup for 4 people). Drain
spaghetti, then return to saucepan.
TIP: ‘Al dente’ pasta is cooked through but still slightly firm in the centre.
• Meanwhile, grate courgette.
• Heat a large frying pan over high heat with a drizzle of olive oil.
• Cook sliced leek, stirring, until just softened, 2-3 minutes. Add courgette
and cook until tender, 2 minutes.
• Add garlic & herb seasoning and cook until fragrant, 1 minute.
• Reduce heat to medium, then stir in cream (see ingredients) and vegetable
stock powder and simmer until slightly reduced, 1-2 minutes.
• Add cooked spaghetti, reserved pasta water and baby leaves, tossing,
until combined and slightly wilted, 1 minute.
• Remove from heat, then stir through plant-based basil pesto until coated.
Season to taste with salt and pepper.
• Divide creamy pesto and leek spaghetti between bowls.
• Sprinkle over grated Parmesan cheese to serve. Enjoy!
