Step by Step guide
Step 1
Prepare all the ingredients.
Step 10
Mix the pasta with the zucchini sauce.
Step 11
Serve the pasta topped with grated cheese.
Step 2
In a large pot, bring water to a boil, generously add salt, and add the pasta. Cook for one minute less than the time indicated on the package. When the pasta is ready, drain the water, reserving 1 cup of the cooking water.
Step 3
Cut the zucchini in half, remove the seeds, and grate it using a coarse grater.
Step 4
Finely chop the onion and garlic.
Step 5
Finely chop all the herbs.
Step 6
In a skillet, heat olive oil and sauté the onion for 3 minutes.
Step 7
Add garlic and chili flakes, and sauté for 1 minute.
Step 8
Add the zucchini, salt, pepper, and half of the herbs. Bring to a boil, cover with a lid, and simmer over medium heat for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Step 9
Add the cream, the remaining herbs, and grated cheese (setting aside a bit for serving), stir, and bring to a boil. If the sauce is too thick, add some pasta cooking water.
