Green Tagliatelle with Three Cheeses

Place the pasta in a pan with plenty of boiling salted water (with a few drops of oil added to prevent it sticking), and when the water has returned to the boil, cook for exactly 8 minutes.

You can watch How to Cook Perfect Pasta in the Cookery School Video on this page.

Meanwhile you can be preparing the sauce: all you do is place the Gorgonzola cheese and ricotta or cottage cheese in the goblet of a liquidiser together with the garlic, cream and half a tablespoon of hot water. Season with salt and pepper then blend until completely smooth. When the tagliatelle is ready, drain it thoroughly in a colander, then return it immediately to the hot pan.

Add the olive oil, chopped pepper and spring onions plus a seasoning of salt and pepper, then toss well. Now spoon the cheese mixture into the pasta, toss again thoroughly then serve straight on to a hot plate and sprinkle with the Parmesan.
