Radish-walnut butter pasta Main dish Quick

Ingredients:

• 5 heads of radish + its leaves
• 4 slices of bacon
• 2 tbsp cold-pressed walnut butter
• 3 tbsp walnut oil
• large handful of basil
• small handful of parsley
• salt
• freshly ground pepper
• 2 large eggs
• 400 g spaghetti

I never throw out radish leaves, I use them to make a delicious salad, a pesto like this one, or add them to any stir-meal. Don’t waste them! It’s great for a tasty, yet minute pasta dinner.

I put the oil, walnut butter, herbs, and radish greens in a blender, season with salt and pepper, and puree with a stick blender. I cook the spaghetti in salted water until “toothsome”. I add 1.5 dl of the cooking water to the green cream, and blend. I pour the green dressing over the pasta and then, while it is still warm, I pour the two beaten eggs over it. At this point I add half of the chopped radishes, which will soften a little from the heat. I add the other half later, just before eating, and I don’t stir it very much.
