Spring pasta

Even that in The Netherlands the spring doesn't want to show this year, last friday I decided to make a spring/summer pasta just to cheer up a bit, to give some sun to these freezing cold days.

The ingredients you need for 2 adults and one child are:

• 2 egg yolks
• 100 gr. grated parmesan, plus some extra
• Fresh basil
• Lemon zest and juice of 1.5 lemons
• 350 gr. fresh lasagne sheets or any other fresh pasta

In a bowl mix 2 table spoons olive oil with the egg yolks, salt and pepper. Add the parmesan, the lemon zest and juice, mix all well. Then chop some of the basil until a paste and the rest cut it, add also in the mixing bowl and scoop well. 

The lasagne sheets you can cut them in the length very thin and cook in boiling water with salt for about 5 minutes. Keep some of the boiling water, drain the pasta and add quickly to the mixing bowl with some of the water. Scoop well, serve with some more basil and grated parmesan. Also delicious with a fresh salad and bread.
