Pasta Salad With Rocket & Tomato Dressing

 Categories: Salads, Pasta, Vegetarian 
      Yield: 4 servings 
  
      4    Ripe tomatoes, peeled, 
      2    De-seeded and chopped 
           Finely 
      2    Garlic cloves, chopped 
           Finely 
      2 oz (60 g) rocket leaves, 
           Chopped coarsely 
      1 tb Olive oil 
      8 oz (240 g) penne pasta 
           (quills) 
           Salt and freshly ground 
           Black pepper 
  
  1. Place the tomatoes, garlic and rocket leaves in a bowl. Add the olive 
  oil and season well with the salt and pepper. Cover and refrigerate for at 
  least 2 hours. 2. Cook the pasta in plenty of lightly salted boiling water 
  for 8 -1 0 minutes until al dente. Rinse well with cold water and drain 
  thoroughly. Toss the pasta with the chilled tomato mixture and serve. 
   
  Cook's notes: Serve this salad warm - simply toss the hot, drained pasta 
  into the chilled tomato sauce. If they are available, plum tomatoes taste 
  delicious in this recipe.

  Freezing not recommended You don't have to travel to Italy to enjoy wild 
  rughetta, a spiky green-leaved plant with a strong peppery flavour. Most 
  supermarkets now sell rocket, a slightly milder cultivated variety. If you 
  can't find it, use spinach or a mixture of lamb's lettuce and watercress.
