Method:

Bring 2 litres of water to the boil in a big saucepan (use boiling water from the kettle to speed things up).

Add Vegetable Stock Powder, noodles and cubed potatoes. Boil briskly for 8 minutes. Add green beans and boil for ± 5 minutes until tender. Drain and reserve ½ cup of pasta water. Return cooked ingredients to the saucepan and add Pasta Spice, olive oil and Basil Pesto.

Toss gently and add some/or all of the reserved pasta water to create a sauce.

Dish into pasta bowls. Sprinkle cheese over and top with freshly ground black pepper.

Serve with a tossed salad dressed with our Classic Balsamic Vinaigrette.
