Homemade Trofie with Pesto, Green Beans and Potatoes

Method

1. Prepare the pasta dough by mixing semolina, water, and salt. Let rest for 30 minutes.
2. Take a small piece of dough, form a ball, and flatten it with your palm. Using the side of your hand, roll the dough under to create the twisted trofie shape.
3. For the pesto, combine garlic, pine nuts, Parmesan, Pecorino, basil, and oil in a mixer. Blend for a few seconds until rustic.
4. Cut the green beans into three parts and cook them in boiling water for 15 minutes.
5. In the same pot, add the potatoes and cook for another 10 minutes.
6. Add the trofie pasta to the same pot and cook until done.
7. Drain and combine all with the pesto, adding a little cooking water to make the dish creamy.
