Pasta with Asparagus and Arugula

The perfect pasta with asparagus and arugula recipe with a picture and simple step-by-step instructions.

  • 500 g Asparagus green
  • 400 g Pasta
  • 100 g Cherry tomatoes
  • 50 g Arugula
  • 1 tbsp Grated lemon peel
  • 1 Onion
  • 1 Clove of garlic
  • Extra virgin olive oil
  • Salt
  • Black pepper from the mill
  1. First peel the onion and garlic and dice finely. Cut off the woody asparagus ends, peel a little if necessary and cut into thin slices. Then wash the cherry tomatoes and cut them in half. Wash the rocket thoroughly, spin dry and cut off the stalks.
  2. Finely puree the rocket with a little olive oil and mix with the grated lemon zest and set aside for now.
  3. Sweat the onion and garlic cubes in a little olive oil until translucent. Then add the asparagus and tomatoes and fry them.
  4. Cook the pasta in salted water until firm to the bite, drain and mix with the rocket-lemon mixture and add to the fried vegetables and mix everything together. If you like, you can slice some Parmesan cheese over it.
