Pasta Salad Primavera

Adapted from Nigella Lawson

Today we are going to make a bright green-colored flavored and tasty pasta salad। This recipe was chosen as the recipe of March’s Cookalong Challenge on Nigella’s forum. I was happy to make it as this salad brings some freshness and the taste of spring. It is a wonderful variation from the standard pasta or rice salads. In this recipe Nigella uses teeny-tiny orzo pasta which brings me back to Greece where I discovered it. It is the pasta in the shape of rice but a little bit bigger. If you cannot find it, replace it by any type of pasta of small shapes.
For me this salad should be oily in its character. The dressing is essential. Do not use any store-bought dressing and no mayonnaise. Good olive oil and lemon juice is all you need to flavor this salad. You can also use tender herbs such as chives, dill, mint, basil and parsley. All these magic ingredients will make a really good pasta salad.

Here is the list of ingredients you’ll need to make this salad for 8-10 portions:

500g r of packet orzo
500g of fine asparagus ( I used frozen ones)
300-500 gr of French beans
300-500 gr of mangetout (snow peas)
250 gr of flageolet beans ( I used canned ones)

Dressing:
4 tablespoons of oilive oil of good quality
2 tablespoons of garlic-infused oil
Juice of 1lemon
Herbs of your choice ( I used parsley and basil)
Salt, pepper to your taste

How to make it :

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil। Add the pasta and cook as label directs (approximately 10-15 minutes).
While the pasta is cooking, prepare your vegetables: wash them up and chop.
Cook the vegetables in salted water. Drain and let cool.
Once the pasta is cooked, drain and rinse it in cold water in a colander. Let cool.
Make a dressing: combine olive oil, lemon juice and herbs.
Place cooked ingredients in a large mixing bowl adding the dressing last. Mix everything.
Refrigerate 2 hours before serving.
