The dish is traditionally made using linguine pasta, tossed in pesto sauce, boiled and sliced potatoes and beans to finish.
In the dish, the pesto sauce is not cooked over the flame, but when the hot pasta is put over the sauce directly, it gets cooked a little bit which keeps the taste of the fresh basil intact.

ReplyDeleteFor me, this is a completely new recipe that I have not seen in books before and did not try, but judging by the ingredients it should be tasty.
