I'm cooking this todayRecipe's preparation
This is not so much a recipe as a yummy lunch I just enjoyed when I didn't have time to shop -I had to use what was in the pantry and fridge! I had some left over spinach and basil dip and always have some tomato pasta sauce and stand-by pasta so away I went!
Grate the cubed parmesan for 10 seconds on speed 9 then set that aside.
Add water, salt and oil to TM bowl and heat for 8 minutes at 100C on speed 1 before adding pasta and cooking for 9 minutes at 100c on REVERSE + speed soft.
Drain the pasta through the rice basket and heat the pesto and tomato sauce for 1 minute at 100C on REVERSE + speed 1. Add drained pasta and stir gently with spatula before srving in a bowl. Top with as much Parmesan cheese as you want!

Thanks for commenting Ros and for the excellent reminder that lots of people need recipes for 1-2 people! I live by myself so find my Thermomix fabulous for just cooking enough for me without ending up with a fridge full of left-overs. My rule of thumb is to get out the quantity of ingredients I want to/am able to consume for the particular meal I'm cooking and then only cook with those ingredients. (ie: 1/2 carrot, 1/2 onion, 3 bits of broccolli, 80-100g pasta or rice depending on my appetite at that moment, 1 tomato, etc.) That way I eat everything I cook and can start fresh again next meal and I'm not tempted to have a second bowl full as there isn't any left!
Of course, sometimes I want left overs to freeze some for another day like soups, bolognaise sauce etc but that's another story for another day!
Thank you for publishing a simple recipe. It is a really good model. With the flavoursome dip and home-made tomato sauce, I can imagine how tasty this would be and I love that the recipe gives us guidelines for proportions suitable for cooking for a smaller meal. A lot of people ask for that. Thank you.
