Categories     Spaghetti

Time 20m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 teaspoon lemon zest
1 lemon, juiced, about 1/4 cup
1/2 cup mascarpone cheese
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 dash pepper, freshly ground
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg, freshly grated
1/2 lb spaghetti
1 tablespoon butter
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 garlic cloves, minced
5 cups spinach, loosely packed, washed, spun dry and rough chopped
1/2 cup hazelnuts, toasted and chopped

Steps:

  • Combine the zest, juice, mascarpone, salt, pepper and nutmeg in a bowl. Whisk together until smooth.
  • Bring a large pot of water to boil and add a generous amount of salt. Boil the spaghetti until al dente - removing pasta from heat one or two minutes earlier than you normally would. Drain the pasta - reserving 1/2 cup of the cooking water.
  • Heat the butter and olive oil in a large pot. Add the garlic and saute until tender. Add the spinach and fry until wilted. Add the lemon/mascarpone mixture, the pasta, and as much of the reserved water as necessary to make the sauce fluid but not watery.
  • Top with the chopped hazelnuts.

I didn't have any hazelnuts, so I used walnuts instead. It was still really good!

This was a good recipe, but I think it would have been better with a different type of pasta.
