In large pot of boiling salted water, cook pasta until al dente, 10 to 12 minutes. Drain and return to pot, reserving 1/2 cup of the liquid.

Meanwhile, in blender, pulse walnuts with garlic until coarsely chopped. Add watercress, parsley, oil and salt; purée until smooth, scraping down side. Stir into pasta along with 1/4 cup of the reserved cooking liquid, adding more as needed to coat.
