Creamy Linguine with Asparagus and Lemon

Ingredients

Method

  • 200g linguine
  • 250g asparagus, trimmed and cut into 3 pieces
  • 1 egg plus 1 yolk
  • 50g grated parmesan cheese
  • 20g butter
  • 1 finely chopped garlic clove
  • 1 lemon, zest and 2 tbsp juice
  • 5g finely chopped dill
  • Cook the pasta in salted water until al dente, adding the asparagus for the last 2 mins of cooking time. Drain and save about 4 tbsp of the cooking water.
  • Meanwhile, add the egg and yolk, the cheese and some black pepper to a bowl and beat together. Melt the butter in a large saucepan, add the garlic and grated lemon zest and sizzle for 2 mins. Remove from the heat, and add the drained pasta and asparagus to the pan with tongs and toss to coat in the garlicky butter.
  • Add the egg mixture and 2 tbsp of cooking water to the pasta, tossing well to coat (add more water if needed). Sprinkle with dill and lemon juice, add a good grind of black pepper, and serve immediately.
