Vegetable Bouillon

Vegetable Bouillon Powder

Ingredients

1 pack Mitsides Linguine
2 cubes Mitsides Vegetable Bouillon
2 zucchini, cut in small cubes
2 small shallots, finely chopped
1 Tbsp butter
1 Tbsp olive oil
1 Tbsp freshly ground black pepper
1 tsp Mitsides Vegetable Powder
¼ cup fresh cream
zest of 1 lemon, grated
1 tsp dry mint
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
Some grated Pecorino cheese for serving

Method

In a large pot with boiling water add the bouillon cubes and once dissolved add the pasta. Cook following pack instructions. Keep 1 cup of the pasta water.

Meanwhile, in a large frying pan, heat the butter and oil. Add the shallots and cook until soft. Add the zucchini in one layer if possible. Do not over mix so that they can lightly brown on each side. This will take about 10 minutes. Add the vegetable powder, dry mint and pepper. Once the zucchini turns lightly crispy, add the cream, lemon zest and some of the pasta water. Season with salt if needed and then add the drained pasta. Serve with grated cheese and some more pepper.
