Cherry Tomato Kale Ricotta Pesto Pasta Recipes

ONE-POT SPAGHETTI WITH CHERRY TOMATOES AND KALE

One-Pot Spaghetti With Cherry Tomatoes and Kale image

In this simple recipe, raw pasta and cherry tomatoes are simmered together in a single pan, cooking the pasta and forming a thick, starchy sauce at the same time. The efficient technique is internet famous, but this is the British cookbook author Anna Jones's vegetarian take on the phenomenon, adapted from her book "A Modern Way to Cook." The technique is easy to master and endlessly adaptable: When you add the kale, you could also toss in a couple of anchovies and a generous pinch of red-pepper flakes. When you season and top with cheese, you could add a pile of fresh chopped herbs, like mint, basil or oregano.

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

Ingredients

1 pound spaghetti
1 pound cherry tomatoes, halved (about 2 pints)
2 lemons, zested
1/4 cup plus 3 tablespoons olive oil
2 teaspoons kosher salt, plus more to taste
1 bunch kale or spinach, leaves only, washed and chopped
Black pepper
Parmesan, for serving

Steps:

Bring just over a quart of water to a boil. Meanwhile, place spaghetti, tomatoes, lemon zest, oil and 2 teaspoons kosher salt in a large, dry, shallow pan. (The pan should be large enough that the dry spaghetti can lie flat.)
Carefully add the boiling water to the pan with the spaghetti. Cover pan, and bring up to a boil. Remove lid and simmer for about 6 minutes, using tongs to move the spaghetti around now and then so it doesn't stick. Add kale or spinach and continue cooking until remaining liquid has reduced to a sauce and the pasta is cooked through. Taste, season with salt and pepper, and top with Parmesan.

Provided by Kare for Kitchen Treaty

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 11

Ingredients

1/2 cup plain walnuts
2 medium garlic cloves (chopped)
3 cups kale (chopped)
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese + a couple additional tablespoons for sprinkling on top
Approx. 2/3 cup extra virgin olive oil
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
8 ounces bow tie pasta
1/2 cup kale & toasted walnut pesto
1 1/2 cups cherry tomatoes (halved)
1/2 cup Parmesan cheese (shredded)
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper to taste

Steps:

In a medium saute pan over medium heat, stir the walnuts until just lightly toasted, about two minutes. Remove from heat and let cool.
Pulse the garlic in a food processor until finely chopped, then add the kale, walnuts, and Parmesan cheese. Pulse until chopped, turning it off periodically and removing the top to press the kale down toward the blade if necessary.
With the food processor running on low, pour the olive oil in in a steady stream until it forms a sauce.
Add salt and pepper to taste.
Boil the pasta in salted water until al dente, per package directions. Reserve 1/4 cup of the cooking liquid. Drain the pasta, then let cool for a few minutes.
Add the pasta to a large serving bowl along with 1/2 cup of the pesto, cherry tomatoes, and 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese. Toss until combined, adding a bit of the pasta cooking liquid if necessary which will help distribute the pesto throughout the pasta.
Add salt and pepper to taste.
Sprinkle additional Parmesan cheese atop the pasta and serve at room temperature.

Bring a pot of generously salted water to a boil, and cook your pasta to al dente, according to package directions. Drain it, reserving 1/2 cup of the cooking water. If using rice-based gluten-free pasta, rinse with cold water. Otherwise, drain but do not rinse.
Warm the olive oil in a small pan over medium heat. Add the cherry tomatoes and cook, stirring occasionally, until nicely browning and starting to get a little juicy - about 5-7 minutes.
In a large pan, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the shallot and a sprinkle of salt. Continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until the shallot is softened. Add the garlic and cook for just about 60 seconds more, stirring occasionally, until the garlic is fragrant.

In the bowl of a food processor, combine the chopped kale, pecans, lemon juice, garlic cloves and salt. Pour in the olive oil and blend on high for 15 seconds, until smooth. You may need to scrape down the sides a few times in between blending.
Next, bring a large pot of water to a boil and add a pinch of salt. Add the spaghetti and cook as directed.
Meanwhile, cook the tomatoes. In a separate medium-size pan, warm 2 tablespoons olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the tomatoes and a pinch of salt, then cover and cook for 10 minutes, until the tomatoes begin to burst open. Remove from heat and set aside. (Be careful not to lift the lid when the tomatoes are hot, as the juices and the oil will splatter! You can shake the pan by the handle to toss the tomatoes as needed.)
When the pasta is tender, remove from heat and drain. Transfer the pasta back to the pot, then spoon the kale pesto on top. Toss until the pesto is evenly distributed. Add the tomatoes to the pot and toss together. Serve warm, garnished with fresh basil and/or grated parmesan cheese.
