We were going to have salad for dinner last night but after a busy early evening I needed some carbs too so made this quick and tasty pasta dish. Literally just takes as long to make as the pasta does to cook. I used chilli-infused oil for the heat - chilli flakes or cayenne pepper would work too - and natural yoghurt for the tang.

Alicante, Spain

Born in the UK, I came to Spain after graduating many moons and meals ago, and I'm still here. For me cooking is a great way to unwind at the end of the day. My recipes tend to be quite quick and simple and (mostly!!) healthy too. Also quite seasonal - I prefer buying fresh local produce as much as possible. When I have time, I love spending a few hours cooking, filling my kitchen with delicious smells and great music and then hosting family and friends for long happy meals, laughs, conversation and chilled white wine. I'm a great believer in the power and value of home cooking for our own health, happiness and wellbeing and those of our loved ones and since I joined the Cookpad team 11 years ago I am committed to helping to make everyday cooking more fun for people all over the World.
