PREPARATION TIME

30 - 35 minutes

 

METHOD

STEP 1

Preheat the oven to 180℃. Drizzle the sweet potato/butternut, onion and garlic in a little olive oil. Season with salt and pepper and roast veg for 25 minutes or until soft and golden.

 

STEP 2

Meanwhile, bring a large pot of water to a boil. Once boiling, salt the water well and cook your preferred pasta according to the instructions.

 

STEP 3

While your pasta is cooking, blanch the peas in hot or boiling water for a few minutes, until they are a vibrant green and just cooked. Drain and set aside.

 

STEP 4

Add the roasted vegetables to a high speed blender, along with the remaining sauce ingredients. Blend on high until very smooth. Taste and adjust the seasoning if necessary.

 

STEP 5

Stir the sauce through the freshly cooked pasta, adding in the peas. Top with chilli flakes, hemp seeds and fresh basil before serving.
