Wash and dry the zucchini and dice; heat some olive oil in a large skillet and stir-fry the zucchini for about 10 minutes until it gets softer and cooks a bit.

Place half the diced zucchini in the bowl of a food processor with the labneh, garlic paste and basil. Purée the mixture, leaving the texture a bit chunky; cook the pasta and reserve about 1/2 cup of the pasta cooking water. Transfer the pasta to a bowl, add the zucchini sauce, the cooking water and toss; add the remaining zucchini and toss. Serve
