1 tbsp light Olive Oil

1 small Courgette sliced

Half a white sweet onion, thinly sliced

1 small Garlic Clove, minced

Pinch of Chilli Flakes

3 Egg Yolks

Handful grated Parmesan

Salt & Pepper

Method

  1. Heat the olive oil in a large frying pan over a low heat and add the sliced onions. Cook for around 20 minutes so they cook slowly and don’t go brown.

  3. Put your pasta on for 10-12 minutes. Don’t forget to salt the water and add the pasta when the water is boiling.
  4. Add garlic and chilli flakes to the courgettes and onions and cook for a couple of minutes, ensuring the garlic doesn’t brown.
  5. Separate the egg yolks and place in a bowl with the Parmesan, salt and pepper. Beat together.
  6. Turn heat off courgette mix and add a spoonful of pasta water and the egg mix.
  7. Drain the pasta once cooked and add to the courgettes, then add the fresh basil and mix together. Enjoy!
