One-pot pasta recipe: a family favourite

INGREDIENTS for 4 persons

12 oz gluten free pasta. (there are many kinds of gluten free pastas but I prefer those made with rice flour)

12 oz chopped tomatoes or whole cherry tomatoes

1 sliced red onion

Any other chopped vegetable you like or have in the fridge (asparagus tips, zucchini, peas, mushrooms, peppers)

4 cloves of sliced garlic

1/2 tsp red pepper flakes

4 sprigs of basil

Salt and pepper

1 cup of chopped parsley

Freshly grated parmesan cheese

PREPARATION

To a large deep frying pan add the dry pasta, garlic and all the chopped vegetables

Add 4.5 cups of cold water or your favourite organic chicken stock

Bring to the boil and begin to mix all the ingredients for 9-12 minutes until the pasta is to your liking. (I prefer al dente)

Season to taste

Divide into 4 bowls, sprinkle generously with parmesan and garnish with the fresh parsley
