Adding feta to the rapini and pasta not only boosts flavour but protein as well.
Ingredients
Preparation
Trim 1/2 inch (1 cm) from rapini stems; discard. Chop rapini coarsely; set aside.
In large pot of boiling salted water, cook pasta for 6 minutes; add rapini. Cook for 2 minutes longer or until tender. Drain, reserving 1/2 cup (125 mL) of the cooking liquid; return pasta and rapini to pot. Stir in cheese, oil, salt, pepper, and hot pepper flakes (if using). Pour in reserved liquid if necessary to moisten.
Additional information :
Tip: Some feta can be salty. Ask to taste it before buying. You can also rinse it or, if desired, soak it for 15 minutes or up to 1 hour in cold water, depending on saltiness (do not let it become soggy). When using feta in recipes, taste before adding salt.
