Instructions
Step 1
Boil the pasta as per the instructions on the packet (usually 12 mins for dried pasta or 4 mins for fresh). Make sure the water is nice and salty to flavour the pasta and cook till just al dente. Set a timer for 5 mins before the pasta has fully cooked and add the peas to save on cooking time
Sauce PanStep 2
Make the basil oil by combining the basil, 2 cloves of peeled garlic, 1 cup of oil and salt and pepper to taste, and blending in a food processor to your desired consistency

Once the pasta and peas are cooked, drain the pasta, reserving a small amount of the pasta water, and return to the pan with a splash of pasta water.
ColanderStep 4
Add the desired amount of basil oil to the consistency you want, and add the apple juice and lime juice, tasting as you go until the sauce has a fragrant taste of basil, apple and lime. Season with salt and pepper to taste
Step 5
Serve on its own, or with diced green olive, pumpkin seeds or charred courgette. If you have any left over, it’s great cold with grated green apple for a fresh, summery twist!
