Angel Hair Pasta With Roasted Garlic - cooking recipe
Ingredients
-
3 large heads of garlic, unpeeled
cooking spray
1/4 cup Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 cup zucchini, julienned
1 cup fresh mushrooms, sliced
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 cup water
1 medium tomatoes, chopped
8 ounces angel hair pasta, cooked and drained
Preparation
-
Lightly spray each head of garlic with cooking spray. Wrap each garlic head separately in foil. Place garlic in a small baking pan. Bake at 400\u00b0 for 45 minutes. Cool 10 minutes.
Separate garlic cloves. Squeeze cloves to extract the pulp; discard peels.
Place garlic pulp, mustard, lemon juice and pepper in food processor or blender container; cover. Process until pureed; set aside. (I have also done this by hand once while we were in the process of moving and I couldn't find my food processor, and it worked just fine. It's tedious, but it does work out OK.).
Cook and stir zucchini and mushrooms in hot oil in a large skillet on medium-high heat for 3 minutes or until zucchini is tender-crisp. Add the pureed garlic mixture, water and tomato; mix well. Reduce heat to low; cook until thoroughly heated, stirring frequently.
Toss the vegetable mixture with hot cooked pasta, and serve while still warm.
