Method

  1. Fill a large pot with 3-4 liters of water and bring to a boil. Add the kale, spinach, and broccoli. Boil until the greens are tender and have lost their bitterness.
  2. Once the water is boiling and the greens are soft, add the spelt pasta and 2 tablespoons of salt. Cook according to pasta package directions, but slightly undercook as it will finish cooking in the sauce.
  3. Meanwhile, transfer the cooked greens to a blender or food processor. Add the cooking cream and a little water if needed (to adjust consistency). Blend until smooth.
  4. Pour the green puree into a large pan and simmer for a couple of minutes. Gradually add the grated Parmesan cheese, stirring until completely melted and incorporated.
  5. (Optional) For a spicy version, sauté thinly sliced garlic and chili flakes in a generous amount of olive oil in a separate pan. Then combine with the sauce.
  6. Drain the pasta (rinse if desired) and add it to the pan with the green sauce. Toss well over low heat until the pasta is coated and heated through.
  7. Serve immediately.
