stir-through

This is one of the quickest, most versatile sauces you can get.  Here, we stir it through pasta for a meal ready in 15 just minutes.  It can also be used as a dipping sauce – as a fresh alternative to tomato ketchup – as seen in the chicken nuggets recipe.

This may seem a bit strange to say – but this sauce is going to be like your favourite top – you’ll wonder how you ever managed without it.

Instructions
  1. Cook pasta according to the instructions on the packet.
  2. Reserve a couple of basil leaves per person for garnish. Place the remaining ingredients into a blender and process until completely smooth.
  3. Once the pasta is cooked, drain and return to the pan. Stir-through the pasta and garnish with the reserved basil leaves.

Recipe Notes

cook once: eat twice

Double the quantity, and keep half in the fridge for up to 2 days.  Freezes really well.  Use as a dipping sauce or baste onto chicken breasts before oven-cooking.

Cook's note

It is worth finding brown rice spaghetti as it retains a nice 'bite' after cooking.  Some of the cheaper corn pastas go very soggy during cooking and can needlessly put you off gluten-free pasta.

To make it FODMAP-friendly simply swap the olive oil for garlic flavoured oil and omit the garlic.
