Wonderfully light, spicy pasta salad

Cook the pasta al dente in plenty of salted water, drain, transfer to a bowl, and toss with 1 tablespoon of olive oil and 2 pinches of sea salt. Cook the diced zucchini in a small pan with 1 tablespoon of olive oil for 5 minutes, season with salt and pepper, and add to the pasta in the bowl. Now add the spring onions, corn, diced cucumber, and feta cheese, and mix lightly. In a tall mixing bowl, whisk all the dressing ingredients together with a mixer until smooth. Mix the prepared salad ingredients with the dressing and season to taste (pepper, salt, lemon juice, etc.) if desired. The salad tastes best freshly prepared, but it’s also great eaten the next day.
