- 4 tbsp olive oil
- 5 tbsp water
- juice of 1 lime
- 20 g vegan parmesan
- 4 garlic cloves thinly sliced
- 1 large red chilli sliced into thin rounds or 1 tbsp chilli flakes
Instructions
-
In a food processor, whizz the broccoli with the basil, mint, nuts, lime juice and oil, until finely chopped. Add the cheese and 4-5 tbsp of water to loosen the pesto, then pulse. Add the garlic and chilli and pulse to combine.

When the pasta is ready, drain and return to the pan. Add the broccoli pesto and mix through the pasta to coat.

Heat the remaining oil in a pan, add the garlic and chilli and stir-fry for 1 min over a high heat, until softened and browning slightly.

Divide the pasta between 2 serving bowls, and spoon over the garlic and chilli sizzle. Serve with a few cheese shavings, if you like.
