This is my quick to prepare and easy, weeknight family meal.


Ingredients (serves 4)

  • 500 g Spaghetti
  • 2 tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • 2 cloves Garlic, crushed
  • 1 Large Red Chili, thinly sliced
  • 100 gms Baby Spinach Leaves
  • 3 tbsp Lemon Juice
  • 3 tsp Lemon Zest, finely grated
  • 100 g Persian Fetta Classic, reserve 2-3 tbsp marinated oil
  • Freshly Ground Black Pepper

Method

  1. Cook spaghetti according to packet directions, until al dente. Drain well.
  2. Meanwhile, gently heat oil in a large, deep frying pan and add garlic, and chili. Stir-fry over medium heat for 3-4 mins, until soft. Add lemon juice and zest and toss to combine.
  3. Add spaghetti, spinach, fetta and reserved marinated oil to pan and toss to combine evenly. Top with freshly ground black pepper, to serve.

Notes

You could add broccoli florets instead of spinach. I usually use South Cape Persian Fetta found in cheese section of supermarket but Danish Fetta is ok.

  • Certainly an interesting mix of flavours.

  • Love this recipe it was so different from the normal pasta recipes that we all try yet it was beautiful. I would just drop the chilli to half next time.

  • We don’t really do chilli in our house but I love everything else about this recipe. We have pasta probably once a week so I’m always looking for new options to add to my repertoire. Thanks for sharing.

  • This is probably very delicious but not for me. Unfortunately I’m allergic to all citrus but I hope everyone else enjoys.

  • The combi might be nice but too little veggies for me. Maybe just leave the spaghetti out and just make 5x the amount of veggies ????
