Quick Double Chorizo & Semi-Dried Tomato Pasta
with Parmesan
Orecchiette literally means “little ears", and this bowl of pasta is like music to ours! Said pasta is cooked to al dente perfection, then tossed with a chorizo-studded sauce, complete with a sprinkle of sharp Parmesan. Tangy semi-dried tomatoes add the finishing touch.

Cooking Steps
• Boil the kettle. • Thinly slice zucchini into rounds. • In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over high heat. Cook soffritto mix and zucchini, tossing occasionally, until golden and tender, 4-5 minutes. Transfer to a bowl.
• Pour the boiled water into a large saucepan over high heat with a generous pinch of salt. Bring to the boil, then add orecchiette. Cook until 'al dente' (cooked through but still slightly firm in the centre), 8 minutes. • Meanwhile, roughly chop mild chorizo. Return frying pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Cook chorizo, in batches, until golden, 4-6 minutes. • When the pasta is ready, reserve some pasta water (1/2 cup for 2 people / 1 cup for 4 people), then drain pasta and return to saucepan.
Little cooks: Older kids, help add the pasta to the pan under adult supervision.
• To the pan with the chorizo, add garlic paste and tomato paste. Cook until fragrant, 1 minute. • Add chicken stock pot, reserved pasta water and the butter. Cook until slightly reduced, 1-2 minutes. • Stir in the cooked pasta and veggies. Add 1/2 the grated Parmesan cheese. Toss to coat. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
• Divide double chorizo pasta between bowls. • Top with semi-dried tomatoes (see ingredients) and remaining Parmesan to serve. Enjoy!
