Another Lenten Recipe


We made this on Friday night, for a meatless supper and celebration of our Confirmation Anniversary.

Camembert Pasta. After Stations of the Cross. And with red wine. From Jamie Oliver's
Ministry of Food.
250g Camembert cheese
2 cloves garlic
1 sprig fresh rosemary
salt & pepper
olive oil
100g parmesan cheese
400g dried rigatoni
150g fresh spinach ( we used baby spinach leaves)
Preheat oven 180 degrees Celsius. Put Camembert in a small oven proof dish or bake in box. Lift off top and discard. Lay chopped garlic and rosemary on top. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and a little olive oil. Bake 25 minutes or until golden and melted.
Cook pasta in salted water until al dente. Add spinach to pan for about 10 seconds to wilt, drain, reserve some of the cooking water.
Return pasta and spinach to pan. Drizzle with olive oil, add grated parmesan. If too thick, add some of the reserved cooking water. Season. Remove cheese from oven.
Serve pasta in bowls. Drizzle the melted Camembert over the top of each serve.

Totally yummy!
