3.2 Vegetables

You can buy seasonal vegetables and combine them however you like.

In addition to the preparation in the pan, the preparation in the pan offers itself.

Broccoli, cauliflower, squash, carrots, parsley roots and leeks all cook conveniently on the baking sheet in the oven.

I prefer to blanch vegetables like green beans and celery on the stove, these vegetables are unsuitable for the oven.

3.3 Sauce Variants

You can serve this pasta with or without pesto sauce.

What is a pesto sauce?

Very easily:

Normal basil pesto is slightly chunky, for the pesto sauce I mix all the ingredients very finely in a blender.

The result is a wonderful green fine herb sauce.

    THX for this great Dish!

    My highlight of this recipe was the combination of so many fresh vegetables that go so well together and the fried herbs!! 🙂

    They were really great, I wouldn't have thought it possible that they bring so much pep to the dish!
