Weekly meals plan

[Disco]

I think it's a traditional Italian dish. I've been doing it for years. You cook finely sliced rounds of new potatoes in with the pasta, then mix with cooked green beans and pesto and the extra starchy pasta water.

It#s a one pot dish really as the green beans might as well go in the pasta water too.

[Estrella]

It sounds really good!

[Disco]

Ligurian pasta it seems to be called.

[emma_p]

I thought it was called pasta Genovese. Whatever it's called I really love it and haven't made it for ages. Will do soon though!

[Disco]

Yeah that's what I thought it was called! but when I put the combo in to google it kept saying lugurian or whatever I typed before :)) It is alla genovese though, I do agree with you.

[Disco]

Except google is saying genovese is beef ragu. Maybe the alla bit it causing this issue...:lol:
