Linguine with Rocket and Chilli Oil

Linguine tossed with chilli oil, peppery rocket and lemon.

  1. Cook the linguine in salted boiling water until al dente, keeping back a little of the water before draining.
  2. In a large bowl, mix the chilli and garlic oil with the lemon juice and toss the hot pasta through it.
  3. Add the grated cheese and rocket, tossing until the leaves just wilt, and loosen with some of the reserved water if it looks dry.
