Preparation
Boil the pasta
- Bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil.
- Add the pasta; stir gently to separate.
- Boil, stirring occasionally, 4 to 6 min., until al dente.
- Reserving ½ cup cooking water (double for 4 portions), drain and toss with a drizzle of oil to prevent sticking.
Mise en place
- Meanwhile, thinly slice the radishes.
Make the sauce & combine the pasta
- In a large pan, heat a drizzle of oil on medium-high.
- Add the garlic, tomato paste and spices. Sauté, 30 sec. to 1 min., until fragrant and dark red.
- Add the cream, ½ the reserved cooking water and S&P.
- Cook, stirring often, 1 to 2 min., until beginning to thicken.
- Add the pasta and cheese. Cook, stirring often, 1 to 2 min., until combined.
- If the sauce seems dry, gradually add the remaining cooking water until you achieve your desired consistency.
Make the salad
- Meanwhile, in a large bowl, combine the vinegar (start with ½), 2 tbsp oil (double for 4 portions) and S&P.
- Add the baby greens and radishes; toss well.
Plate your dish
- Divide the pasta between your plates.
- Serve the salad on the side. Bon appétit!
