Smart crab linguine

 

Ingredients

 

100 g linguine

1 tbsp olive oil

2 garlic cloves, finely sliced

2 tbsp low-fat cream fraîche

100g tub white crab meat or 100g drained from a can

handful rocket, chopped, plus extra leaves to serve

zest ½ lemon

1 tbsp toasted pine nuts

 

Method

 

Cook the linguine following pack instructions, reserving a little cooking liquid before you drain it.

 

Heat the olive oil in a frying pan. Add the garlic and cook gently to soften, but don’t brown. Stir in the crème fraîche, crabmeat, chopped rocket and lemon zest, and gently heat through.

 

Tip in the cooked pasta and a little cooking liquid to help the sauce coat the pasta. Season and give everything a stir. Sprinkle with the pine nuts and remaining rocket leaves.
