Broccoli Walnut Blue Cheese Pasta


I have had a dish similar to this at a restaurant in the past and enjoyed it. So, when i saw this recipe in the 2008 christmas copy of bbc good magazine i wanted to jot it down.

Steps


Cook penne pasta according to packet directions.
When there is four minutes remaining in the pasta cooking time throw in the broccoli florets.
Meanwhile , heat olive oil and add chopped walnuts and fry gently for 1 minute.
Drain the pasta , adding 4 tablespoons cooking water to the walnuts.
Return the pasta to the pan , add the walnuts and creamy blue cheese , cubed.
Gently stir on the heat , just to melt the cheese.
Squeeze over lemon juice to serve.
