Saffron, Courgette & Pine Nut Fettuccini

Print Recipe

Ingredients:

1 large finch saffron thread
¼ cup boiling water
half a 500g packet dried fettuccini
2 courgettes
2 carrots
425g Urban Appetite White Wine & Lemon Cream Sauté Sauce
35g pine nuts, toasted
1 handful grated parmesan

Soak saffron in the boiling water for half an hour to release its colour and flavour. Cook the
pasta in plenty of simmering water for 9 minutes then drain. Peel the carrots and discard the
skin. Continue to peel the carrots all the way to the core to create ribbons. Peel the courgettes
leaving the skin on and turning the courgette slightly as you peel to create ribbons with a
green line down one side.

In a large pot or deep pan, pour in the Urban Appetite White Wine & Lemon Cream Sauté
Sauce and saffron water. Add the vegetable ribbons, pine nuts and parmesan. Stir until it
comes to a simmer. Add the fettuccini and coat in the hot sauce. When the sauce begins to
simmer again, remove from the heat. Distribute evenly into 4 warm serving dishes and serve
immediately.

Serves 3-4
