      500g/17oz/6 cups of corn or rice (GF) pasta tubes

      1 large bunch (55g/2oz/4 cups) of fresh coriander (cilantro)

      30g/1oz/½ cup of fresh parsley

      1 clove of garlic, peeled and crushed

      100g/3½oz/¾ cup of pine nuts, ground in a food processor

      Salt and freshly ground black pepper

      Brush a char-grill pan with a little of the oil. Place the rosemary and chicken breasts in the pan and cook until the chicken is crispy and cooked through (about 10 minutes). Discard the skin, then slice the chicken breasts diagonally into bite size pieces. Discard the rosemary.

      While the chicken is cooking, boil the pasta in a pan of salted water until just tender. Drain and refresh under hot water. Toss in a bowl with one tablespoon of the olive oil. Mix in the chicken pieces.

      In a food processor, blend the remaining oil with the coriander (cilantro), parsley, garlic and pine nuts until smooth. Stir the coriander (cilantro) pesto sauce into the pasta, adjust the seasoning if necessary, and serve immediately.

      Gnocchi with Walnut and Lemon Sauce

       This was a fun and economical dish that we adored making in Lucca (Italy) when we were staying in the mountains during spring.

       Serves 4 (or 6 as a starter)

      SAUCE

      3 large cloves of garlic, peeled and crushed (GF) chilli oil and extra virgin olive oil to taste

      100g/3½oz/¾ cup of finely chopped walnuts

      Grated rind and juice of 3 large lemons

      2 teaspoons of caster (superfine) sugar

      Salt and freshly ground black pepper

      15g/½oz/¼ cup of chopped fresh parsley

      GNOCCHI

      1kg/2.2lb/7 cups of floury potatoes

      1 large free-range egg

      200g/7oz/scant½ cups of potato flour

      85g/3oz/1/3 cup of (DF) margarine

      15g/½oz/½ cup of chopped oregano leaves

      Freshly ground black pepper

      Extra flour for dusting

      1 teaspoon of salt

      15g/½oz/½ cup of shredded fresh basil leaves

      First make the sauce. Cook the garlic in olive oil mixed with the chilli oil (8 tablespoons for 4 people, or 12 tablespoons for 6 people) for a few seconds. Stir in the walnuts and lemon rind and cook for a few more seconds. Add the lemon juice and sugar, salt, pepper and parsley. Keep the sauce warm.

      Now make the gnocchi. Peel the potatoes and boil until soft enough to mash. Drain and mash with all the gnocchi ingredients. Allow to cool.

      Dust your hands with flour and shape the mixture into walnut size pieces. When the pieces are the correct shape and size, press the back of a fork a little way into the gnocchi to slightly indent and decorate.

      Bring a very large pan of water to the boil with a teaspoon of salt and then drop the gnocchi into the water in batches and cook for just 30 seconds. Drain and keep warm in a serving dish.

      Pour the sauce over the gnocchi. Serve piping hot, sprinkled with the shredded basil leaves.

      Crab Cream Fettuccini

       Fresh or frozen crab is always available in good supermarkets so you can serve this pasta any time of the year with a tossed green salad, or stir-fried sugar-snaps and dwarf (green) beans.

      375g/12½oz/4½ cups of corn and parsley (GF) fettuccini

      Salt and freshly ground black pepper

      The juice of 1 lemon

      200ml/7fl oz/¾ cup of coconut cream

      Extra oil

      1 tablespoon finely chopped coriander (cilantro) leaves

      First, finely slice the peppers. Then cook the pasta following the packet’s instructions in boiling salted water. Meanwhile, heat the oil in a wok and stir-fry the peppers until slightly softened, then add the garlic, onions, chilli and lemon grass and cook for a couple of minutes. Stir in the crab meat and season with salt and pepper. Mix in the lemon juice and then the coconut cream.

      Bring to the boil and remove from the heat.
