Zubereitung von Farfalle With Creamy Pesto
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add 1 pound of farfalle pasta and cook according to package directions until al dente.
- While the pasta cooks, prepare the pesto sauce. In a food processor, combine 1 cup packed fresh basil leaves, 1/2 cup low-fat cottage cheese, 1/4 cup low-fat sour cream, 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese, 2 cloves garlic, 1/4 cup pine nuts (or walnuts), and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Process until smooth, adding 2-3 tablespoons of olive oil as needed to reach desired consistency.
- Once the pasta is cooked, drain it, reserving about 1/2 cup of pasta water.
- Add the drained pasta to the pesto sauce in a large bowl. Toss to coat, adding a little pasta water if needed to loosen the sauce.
- Serve immediately, garnished with extra Parmesan cheese and a sprinkle of fresh basil (optional).
