Tips

Lentil pasta GI experiment - lets see how this works!


Directions

Method
1.Preheat the oven to 220°C, gas mark 7. Arrange the tomatoes in a large roasting tin and nestle the onion wedges in between. Sprinkle with the chopped chillies and drizzle with the oil, then season lightly. Roast for 15-20 minutes, or until the onions begin to char and the tomatoes are soft but not disintegrating.
2.Meanwhile, cook the pasta in boiling water for 3-4 minutes or until al dente. Drain away most of the cooking water, leaving 2-3 tablespoons behind to help prevent the pasta from sticking.
3.Mix the roasted tomatoes and onion into the pasta with the parsley and capers. Season to taste, and serve with a green salad.
Cook's tips
The tomatoes and onion can be roasted in advance and warmed through before serving. As a variation, add 150g large cooked prawns when mixing the pasta and vegetables
