It's Kiel Week and nothing is as usual. The children want to go to the summer festival, but not the same day and of course not together. So we were only two for lunch today and enjoyed


A great combination of flavours!

Directions

Cook the pasta in plenty of boiling salted water according to pack instructions. Meanwhile, finely chop the almonds, chop the courgette into small chunks, crush the garlic and strip the basil leaves from the stalks. Heat the oil in a large frying pan and fry the courgette for 2-3 mins until starting to soften, then throw in the garlic and half the basil and cook for 1 min more. Drain the pasta and add to the courgettes, along with the almonds, the rest of the basil, the parmesan, salt, pepper and lemon juice. Toss everything together and serve with extra parmesan on the side.
