Did I invent this? I Googled for a chimichurri pasta recipe to compliment some lamb steaks and couldn't find much. That said I really just added cream to pasta. Sometimes it's the inspiration more that the recipe. Great thing is I used the chimichurri on the lamb too and saved some for the rest of the week, a little goes a long way.


This was a lovely alternative to rice as a staple side for Mexican flavours and I will make again. Added burrata to balance the spice and because it needed using.

  • 200g pasta

  • 1 – 2 tbsp chimichurri (recipe here)

  • 2 cups double cream

  • ¼ cup parmesan

 

Method

 

  1. Make the chimichurri ahead of time so the flavours infuse.

  2. Cook the pasta until al dente.

  3. Heat a pan and cook off 1 – 2 tbsp chimichurri for a minute or 2 (you can add more later to taste).

  4. Gradually pour in the cream and bring to a simmer.

  5. Add the parmesan and stir until melted.

  6. Taste to check you are happy with the chimichurri flavour level, if not add more.
