Step-by-step recipe

check things off as you go

  1. Faire bouillir l'eau

    Remplis la casserole d'eau à moitié et porte à ébullition sur feu vif. Ajoute une pincée de sel.

    Tip · Si l'eau bout trop fort, baisse un peu le feu pour éviter les éclaboussures.

  2. Cuire les pâtes

    Plonge les 150 g de pâtes dans l'eau bouillante et laisse cuire selon le temps indiqué sur le paquet (généralement 8 à 10 min).

  3. Égoutter les pâtes

    Sors les pâtes de l'eau avec une passoire et réserve-les dans un bol.

  4. Préparer les tomates

    Lave les tomates, retire le pédoncule et coupe-les en petits dés sur la planche à découper.

  5. Faire chauffer les haricots

    Verse les 180 g de haricots blancs égouttés dans la poêle à feu moyen. Laisse-les chauffer 2 min en remuant pour les réchauffer.

  6. Mélanger les ingrédients

    Ajoute les pâtes égouttées, les dés de tomates et le pesto dans la poêle avec les haricots. Mélange bien pour enrober les pâtes.

    Tip · Si le mélange est trop sec, ajoute une cuillère à soupe d'eau de cuisson des pâtes pour détendre le pesto.
