Pink Pasta (Barbie Pasta)
This pink pasta not only looks incredible, but it tastes SO good too. You might have seen this dish on TikTok, because this Barbie Pasta is everywhere! My version only requires a handful of ingredients and is super simple to make.
Servings: 2 people
Ingredients
- 2 raw beetroots, peeled and sliced into medium-sized cubes
- 1 bulb of garlic
- 200g Greek feta
- 1 vegetable stock cube (10g)
- 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 125ml cold water
- Handful of dill, roughly chopped
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 180C (fan) or you can use your airfryer at 200C.
- Begin by peeling and slicing off the tips of your beetroot. Then, slice them into chunky cubes and place them onto some tin foil. Drizzle with olive oil and pepper, wrap it all up in the foil, then place in the oven or air fryer for 30 minutes.
- Get your garlic bulb and slice 1cm off the top of your bulb so that the fresh garlic is slightly revealed. Once again, place on some tin foil and drizzle with olive oil and pepper. Wrap up the garlic so it's completely wrapped in foil, then place in the oven or air fryer for 30 minutes.
- Cook your pasta 5 minutes before your beetroot and garlic are ready, in salted boiling water according to package instructions. Once cooked, drain and set aside with a drizzle of olive oil (this is so the pasta doesn't stick together).
- Once your beetroot and garlic are soft, remove them from their skins and add them into a blender with your feta, vegetable stock, black pepper, and 125ml of cold water. Blend until smooth.
- Using the same pot that your pasta was cooked in, add in your sauce and your cooked pasta. Place on low heat and combine everything until your pasta is coated in your pink pasta sauce and it's hot.
- Serve up with a sprinkling of dill and enjoy!
