Spicy Cajun Tomato & Super Greens Rigatoni
with Italian Style Cheese
Punchy and smoky with a spicy kick, Cajun spice mix gives any dish a tasty boost. Made with herbs and spices common in Cajun cuisine, this spice mix contains ingredients such as chilli powder, ground cumin, oregano and thyme, making it the perfect match for meat and seafood dishes, as well as pasta sauces and stews.
Boxes and ingredients are packed in facilities that handles Peanut, Nuts, Sesame, Fish, Crustaceans, Milk, Egg, Mustard, Celery, Soya, Gluten and Sulphites. Due to the war in Ukraine, it has been necessary to substitute sunflower oil with rapeseed oil in some products without a label change. The FSA have advised that allergic reactions to rapeseed oil are rare.

Nutritional information
Instructions
a) Boil a full kettle.
b) Halve any thick broccoli stems lengthways, then cut into thirds widthways.
c) Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press).
a) Once boiled, pour the water into a large saucepan with 0.5 tsp salt on high heat.
b) Add the rigatoni to the water and bring back to the boil. Cook until tender, 12 mins.
a) Meanwhile, heat a drizzle of oil in a large frying pan on medium heat. Add the Cajun spice mix (add less if you'd prefer things milder) and garlic. Stir-fry for 30 secs.
b) Stir in the passata, red wine stock paste, sun-dried tomato paste, sugar and water for the sauce (see pantry for both amounts).
c) Bring to the boil, then lower the heat and simmer until thickened, 4-5 mins.
a) When the rigatoni has been cooking for about 8 mins, add the Tenderstem® to the same pan and bring back to the boil.
b) Cook with the pasta for the last 3-4 mins of cooking time.
c) Once cooked, drain the pasta and broccoli in a colander and pop back in the pan. Drizzle with oil and stir through to stop it sticking together.
a) Once the tomato sauce has thickened, add the butter (see pantry for amount) and spinach to the pan, a handful at a time until wilted and piping hot, 1-2 mins.
b) Stir the cooked pasta, broccoli, peas and three quarters of the cheese into the sauce. Heat through until the peas are piping hot, 1 min more.
c) Taste and season with salt and pepper if needed. Add a splash more water if you feel it needs it.
a) Share the Cajun spiced tomato pasta out between your serving bowls.
b) Sprinkle over the remaining cheese to finish.
Enjoy!
