Cooking Steps
1
- Boil a large pot of salted water for the rigatoni.
- When boiling, add the rigatoni to the water and bring back to the boil. Cook until softened, 12 mins.
- Once cooked, drain in a colander and pop back in the pot.
- Drizzle with oil and stir through to stop it sticking together.
TIP: If you’re in a hurry you can boil the water in your kettle.
2
- Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press).
- Halve the tomatoes.
3
- Place a medium pan over medium heat (no oil).
- Once hot, fry the chorizo for 3-4 mins.
- Add the tomatoes and garlic. Cook for 4-5 mins, until softened.
- Add the pesto, creme fraiche and half the Italian style hard cheese to the pan.
- Add the pasta and stir to coat. Turn off the heat and season to taste with salt and pepper.
4
- Divide the pasta between plates or bowls.
- Garnish with the remaining cheese.
