Serves 4.
Ingredients
- 1 jar (500g) Ozganics Spicy Tomato Pasta Sauce
- 400 - 500g Conchiglie Pasta (large shell pasta)
- 4 tablespoons ricotta
- 5 kale leaves, stems removed, washed and chopped
- 8-10 vine tomatoes, washed but left on the vine
- Black pepper and parmesan cheese to serve
Method
1. Preheat oven to 200 degrees° bake.
2. Place the tomatoes on a lined baking tray or roasting dish and drizzle with olive oil.
3. Roast in the oven for 10 - 20 minutes or until the tomatoes are soft and juicy.
4. Fill a large saucepan with water and place on the stove over a high temperature. When the water is boiling, add a teaspoon of salt and the pasta shells. Reduce the temperature to a medium heat and cook the pasta until al-dente or according to the packet instructions.
5. Place the chopped kale into a large mixing bowl and drizzle with olive oil. Use your hands to coat each piece in the olive oil. Add the kale to a large frying pan over a high temperature and panfry, turning occasionally until crispy. Be mindful not to let it get too brown or black.
6. Drain the pasta and place it back into the same saucepan. Add Ozganics Spicy Tomato Pasta Sauce, the ricotta and stir through for a few minutes while on the heat.
7. Serve the pasta with the roasted tomatoes, a sprinkle of crispy kale, black pepper and parmesan.
